There is no need to do that, you are already a Pettit owner, so you have a "Dude" Flash. Cam is using My stuff now, which has some dude heritage in it, so you are already part of the "family". Have a look on my site for sCANalyser Pro Tuner.

Looks like I hit the MAF ceiling of my logger,,,, 365.21g/s

and from a couple mins earlier,,,

Hymee · 11-06-2009, 09:56 PM

It's not the ceiling of the logger, it is the maximum that was read. It auto-scales. The maximum the MAF can read is a function of the MAF Calibration table in the tune-up. This is a 2D table the provides a grams/per second lookup function, based on the voltage of the MAF sensor. If you re-size your MAF, you can use this to re-calibrate it.

Cheers,
Hymee.

The blower belt has to go, but after that, it's just painful to loosen the A/C tension bolt.

Two ways to do it:
Box end wrench and lots of time. (turn bolt, flip wrench, repeat)
Or:
Remove S/C belt and belt idler pulley.
Remove top S/C pulley.
Remove 6 bolts holding the front mount to the S/C.
Remove S/C front mount.
You can get to the A/C tension bolt easy now.

I have thought of trying a "Crow foot wrench" but never tried, I think it's possible.

JWoody · 11-08-2009, 06:24 PM

thats pretty much how i thought it would be. it is going to be a pain either way from what i can tell haha. Also, michaelsk8er yeah i live right in W'boro! do you have a supercharger aswell?

JWoody · 11-08-2009, 06:27 PM

Oh i got another question anyone know how to remove a check engine light error code? the one i got is P0410 (which is Secondary air injection system) i have know way to fix it and i want to just clear the error from my car all together. i do have the EFI dude logger and was wondering if that can do it.

olddragger · 11-08-2009, 09:20 PM

Just back from track w/e in Roebling Road in Savannah ga. Beautiful w/e--so many different kinds of cars--the usual Porsche's AMG (Kreeman black addition) Mercedes--it was WICKED!, stangs, supercharged S2's, miata's, old stock nascar car, sweet Porsche 928 that was preparded!, Some GT3's--and about 10 RX8's and an adopted beautiful 09 G37..Total 140 cars.
Track supper was home cooked chicken catchatore, and some other sausage mixture with onions peppers, wine , beer, cheese cake, salad, with red checkered table cloths with flowers on the table --all the while listening to the Allmans Brother SISTER playing the guiter--she does have a nice setup and her brothers taught her well.
After the meals and cigars one of the teams set up a projector hooked to their laptop and made a screen out of the side of their transport trailer. Started showing track vids---Sweet!!
Track was pretty good too--student was great --had a sweet 40th anniversary edition and he progressed well--his smile got a little bigger each time.
One of our members lost a clutch but other than that--all went well. I did not track mine.
Wish yall could have been there--we will be back in May 2010!? Ya'll come!

Hymlee --thanks i wasnt aware of that--oh by the way i gave your name as one of "experts" to a recent new owner of a RX--he happens to be a real rocket scientist with NASA--we got cool stickers! He is interested in the rotor flame propagation--

Rotr8 · 11-08-2009, 09:26 PM

Sounds fun, Denny, plan on me being there in May,,,

TopGear8 · 11-08-2009, 09:29 PM

^You'll have a great time. Althought I did like the temps being in the 70s this time instead of May when they were in the upper 90's. That's a bit hot for street tires!

Rotr8 · 11-08-2009, 09:30 PM

I wont have street tires on the track,,,

I know what you mean though(temps), Denny invited me but it was too short of a notice and I was pretty busy this weekend anyway

olddragger · 11-09-2009, 09:59 AM

I promise it will be a w/e to remember dude---promise
Hey Top Gear----rested yet?
Man I am trying to remember what all happened.......so much fun.

zenrx8 · 11-10-2009, 07:46 AM

You guys aren't gonna believe this. After all the crap I went through with my first RX8 burning to the ground, I get home last night, late, and some guy has broken into my garage and is stripping parts off my new one and was poking around the boxes that my new supercharger was packed in. WTF??? I can't believe my luck. I held the bastard at gunpoint until the cops came and hauled his ass away. He had a funny name, too, like "Moon" or something like that - I think he was on meth

Anybody want to buy a camo green Isuzu VehiCross?

Rotr8 · 11-10-2009, 08:45 AM

hhahaahah @ RIWWP,,,

hey Wes, I have some photo evidence if you ever need any in the investigation, hahhahaha...

Here are some questions about RX-8 superchanged
1. I am in Japan. Is it feasible to equip the Japanese RX-8 with superchanged?
2. After equipped the superchanged, will it take some not good effection to the car?

Question one: Maybe - depends on tuning and other mods on your 8

Question two: ? (not sure what your asking)

No I don't. I was interested in getting one eventually. I am torn between S/C or turbo but for the moment staying NA for warranty. I'd love to hear your S/C and maybe go for a ride in a S/C 8 o.O

I'm sure the Central Virginia Mazda Club would love to see a S/C 8 amidst them as well.

I am so sorry,I am not good in English.
The second question is
Will it bring any damage to my RX8?
And will it be easy to install it by myself?
Thank you so much.

Your english is one hell of a lot better than my Japanese (non existent).

Any FI application can damage a vehicle, depending on how it is driven, how it is cared for, and how much boost you use additional stress will be put on the engine. If you take care of the vehicle, the useful life should be a long time.

I do not know your expertise as to mechanics but with general knowledge you can install one with a little help. Tuning is another matter.

Excellent use of the Second Amendment, Wes. Use it as much as you can before we lose it.
