AccessPORT Alpha test started
I was trying to make a joke since teamrx8 had use of the accessport far before anyone else here, thus if I could get chancejet to explain to him what the accessport was, it would have been funny. However when I have to explain the entire thing, it is no longer worth it :P
I'll be doing back to back runs on Friday in Denver on a Dyno Dynamics dyno. Curious to see how it all plays out, is it'll be the first time I've had the car on a dyno.
Nobody has knocked the concept of the Racing Beat Air Duct with stock box or Odula Air Duct with stock box combination.
I would expect to see Cold Air Ducts show improvement in colder air and possibly increased air flow.

I'm assuming that such temp. difference would hold true for the RacingBeat air duct. Also, the total volume of air that can be "took in" appears greater for the RacingBeat duct. The "ram air" effect, would also be because of the shape of the duct. A wide mouth inlet that changes to a narrower shape, thus helping "accelerating and increasing the proportional amount of air flow" at high speeds.
However, on the dyno. these things would be a bit harder to show because the car is not moving. A data logger, may do a better job in showing differences.
TO ANYONE THAT SENT ME A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ON THE ACCESSPORT:
Please send me a follow-up e-mail with your year/model of your RX-8 so I can ear-mark the appropriate flash.
Thanx.

As great as the accessport is, in the end we have the same engine we have always had. The gains with this will be similar to the gains with the EMU or int-x - all we're doing is modifying fuel maps and timing. So as long as the solution can modify the values properly, then it doesn't matter which you use, your results should be similar.
Please riddle me this....
I thought the standard procedure with AP users is buy AP. Go to Cobbtuning.com and download base maps.
With my old AP I (that I am used to anyways), Cobb provided many other maps - stage I, Stage II and for different octane. Also they included some nifty maps like valet mode, economy mode, anti-theft mode etc. Is this no longer the case?
thanks.
