well then there you go

 

anyone ported their TB yet--hehehe?

^Uh oh. Did you?

...That's after the MAF... are you trying to cram in more air without upsetting the computer?

 

yes the flash was done successfully...
but after that, my Efilogger stopped working...so maybe something happen while flashing the car.

I received my new logger last week, I did a run to log some data & sent it to Cam and Dian...

You'll find it atttached...

 

Very nice proposition.
As for the installation We have to move everything in the engine... plus I install 4 new ignition coils and the magnacore wires....

so my question ... How can I check if those are correctly plugged ?

 

Make sure the ignition wire harness colors match up with the correct coil/spark plug wire (example: Follow the spark plug wire up from the leading front spark plug. Verify that the ignition wire connector has a green wire input)



Do the same for each using the colors in the diagram above. I'm pretty sure Y/G is yellow with a green stripe, G is green, L is blue, and W is white.

Therefore:
Leading Front coil -> Green
Trailing Front coil -> White
Leading Rear coil -> Yellow/Green
Trailing Rear coil -> Blue

 

FEED sells a larger TB...
I feel like this was brought up awhile ago and everyone came to a consesus that it wasnt a larger TB that was desired but rather longer runner lengths..

 

here's proof for your direct comparison:

Thread Fluid is selling the SC:

Thread ChrisM sent, this guy owned the car:

Note Picture 1 in Fluid's thread and picture 2 of cobrn's thread.

Definitive!

 

I am getting more MAF then the ECU will handle, more flow is pointless.
I was told, anything greater than 350 on the MAF is treated by the ECU as if it was 350.

Also, I have been told the MAF housing is the stock diameter, and is unscaled.

Yeah, our ECU sucks for reaching over 350 RWHP.

Alternate, additional fuel like methanol can get past that.

//Go to a bigger MAF housing????

 

Interesting idea.
Push the throttle body forward and put the MAF and air filter out in front of the radiator core support.

 

Yea, I kinda figured it out. I had be talking to the guy that blew it and I really thought that he would fix it......too bad for him. This will be one of the few that ever gets sold like that.

 

Anybody other than me wonder how Hymee feels about this...........

 

Wouldn't you have to relocate the intercooler if you do a true CAI like that?

 

He probably doesn't care. I'm sure he's aware that Fluid is basically a reseller of goods.

For instance, you can buy a Pettit Supercharger kit from RX7store.com, but they also sell Greddy Turbo kits.

 

I was kind of wondering the same thing.
competing product for LESS then the Hymee (for which he's the only US distributor)

 

i mentioned porting the tb because not all of us are running the bigger pulley! And I NEED something to do.!!
I think I would rather just supply cold air to the stock location of the airfilter. ambient temps once above 70F are not going to make a huge difference at times you are running hard. The sc just puts out to much heat. turn the w/m on. That is what will cool the charge temps.
Cold air to the oridginal will help to cool that entire area--including the coils.

Instead of working on the actual intake and filter, why not work on some ducting to take cold air up to that area? That will leave MAF turbulence etc well out of the picture.

Like a ram duct that feeds up into the tray area under the filter?

Bear in mind I have no idea what I'm talking about a lot of the time.....

 

Short answer, no.

I was going to put in in front of the Radiator and the IC.

 

^Tricky?

 

about the tb, didnt hymee say he had a 85mm tb?
and about the filter, y not try and go to a different brand? k&N are nowhere near the best. y not go more free flowing then trying to cram a huge cone in there

 

this is the cold air supply i am thinking about doing--minus the oem stuff of course

The open more freely flowing filter i know of than kn is the blitz stainless steel type which doesnt filter very well.
i ordered the rf 1033 KN--should work.
I am thinking by porting the TB( by that I only mean to cut the ridge down in the tb channel not making the entire TB larger--least not much.) bigger filter and my reworked lim and using the above cold air set up may be pretty cool--no pun intended.

^ whoa. intense. Through the emblem. Just... just wow.

 

Car and supercharger have been sold, pending title transfer.

Freshly rebuilt Motor and so on.
