YUP :) Hopefully it'll start raining at night time.

Speedrx8er 05-18-2005 02:06 PM

Got the O2 sensor. Hmm doesn't look right.. Looks like the back O2 sensor. Then again I might be wrong :D We'll see tonight.

I'm crossing my finger for you...if it is the incorrect sensor call Mazmart and have them overnight one to you at no charge since it was their fault

you might as well call mazmart to confirm the air sensor serial number is indeed for what you are looking for then if needed they can send a new one today

Yah, on the tag it said front. But the wire lenght look like the rear. ehehhe Then Again I forgotten what it looks like since i last yank it out :p .

I am just dying to get home ahahha this the last piece of the puzzle. :D

Speedrx8er 05-19-2005 08:45 AM

Got home late lastnight. ahaha Only manage to get the new O2 sensor in and double check to to make sure all the nuts and bolts are nice and tight. Tonight after a dinner outing and her Co-worker :( start the engine.

Speedrx8er 05-19-2005 09:29 PM

I am Turbo!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :D

When I start her up after work. Dang I amost cried!!! OIl leaked like there was no tomorrow. Found the source and tightened the oil line.

Dang it takes getting used to driving turbo(my first). the BOV kinda freaks me out at first
hahahahaa. It seem to blow at 3000 rpm hmmm..

truemagellen 05-19-2005 09:49 PM

blow at 3k sounds just about right :D :D that turbo is almost zero lag which is why everyone loves it!

Congrats bud :D!

BOV representation...sound like a ku chsssssssssh? :p

u want to stop by my office after work and give me a ride? :) (also if u are done with the jack stands we could transfer them to my car...but no hurry if you need them keep em till you are done).

truemagellen 05-19-2005 10:42 PM

Speed if you want we can hook up the sCANalyser tool on Sunday and you can check out all the readings in your car (o2, fuels injections, etc etc)

cool thing is the makers just cracked the WDS codeswhich means ALL the data from the ECM (engine control module for others who are reading this) is accessible!!!!!!!!!!! means much better tuning possiblitiy for FI applications :) :)

check it out:

Speedrx8er 05-19-2005 11:00 PM

Sorry Truemagellen I won't be driving in tomorrow. We can met up on Sat if you want.
I need your jack for one more day hehehe still have to put the under panel on and the.


The Drive was great ku chsssssssssh!!!!!!!! But I do feel some lag :( Then again what I know hehehe my first Turbo.

sCANalyser tool <---- Yessss sir I do I do. Can your scan tool load Map?

truemagellen 05-20-2005 01:39 AM

you'll need the greddy emanage software and cable and the password to mess with the maps...there are several who are doing it as we type this :D

hey don't worry about the jacks...I'm going out of town in a week so I may not need them for a while :D

truemagellen 05-20-2005 02:32 AM

Speed this Gauge may not be that expensive but sure is cheaper than replacing the entire A-pillar :)

Speedrx8er 05-20-2005 09:03 AM

True:

Thanks :D

Speedrx8er 05-20-2005 11:52 AM

Dang something didn't feel right about my ride last night. I talked to a Co- worker of mine about the BOV blowing at 3000 RPM. It was blowing as I was giving it GAS. He told me it should only blow as I let off the gas. :( hmmmmmm don't know whats wrong.
Maybe I have to tighten the BOV

truemagellen 05-20-2005 01:04 PM

hmmmm ask Phil or other turbo installers...turbos on a rotary are slightly different

Speedrx8er 05-20-2005 03:02 PM

:) I am going to pick up an autometer boost gauge at mas racing product for hmm 50-60 bucks. It should help me figure it out :D

tjklein 05-20-2005 08:42 PM

I wish I could make it down on Sunday. Unfortunately, I will be working, but I'm gonna get in on the next one. I'd love to see that turbo 8 even if it isn't quite right yet.

Oh well, next time...

Speedrx8er 05-20-2005 09:04 PM

eheheheh :D Made alittle adjustment to the BOV. Change the 3 way spliter to a bigger one.
Run alot better now ehhehe :D but not quite tune. :) . But I definitely feel the boost now. I can even feel in 2nd gear. Got to save some $$ and buy the E-management tool so I can
load the tuned map.

fray 05-20-2005 09:50 PM

Will the emanagement tool be necessary once the Hymee scan tool is ready? Or does the internal computer not have enough adjustment for boost?

truemagellen 05-20-2005 09:53 PM

the emanage tool changes afr...and other air sensors with an overide

currently there is map loaded the is conservative, emanage will alow tuning :) hymee allows viewing of sensors

Speedrx8er 05-20-2005 10:04 PM

Yup :)

fray 05-21-2005 07:28 AM

Ahh ok.. (see I learn something new every day) :)

truemagellen 05-21-2005 01:06 PM

I'll bring the Hymee sCANalyser along for the meet tomorrow so you guys can see it, if you want (still the beta version of the software but the full version will be out in a week, the update adding the WDS encrypted data will be out in a month)

-J

Speedrx8er 05-21-2005 01:33 PM

Very cool:).. I am going to put the Car back together now :)

Cheers
