got my efi dude today and made a little run--now i wish I knew what the hell it meant.
got my innovate wideband working--ashtray mount--turned out well. I used the 2nd o2 sensor power source(i have a midpipe anyway) and water meth kit is installed ---trunk mount---a 175 nozzle pre blower. also am monitoring intake temps at the upper intake manifold junction with the lower. Now that I feel a little less gun shy i ran her a little hard. Found out my tach is off about 500 rpm, also found out this damn car is FAST! Holey Mother of God--4th gear--100MPH and the front end is still lifted.

Enjoy it.

Nice---very nice

looks like a neat/clean install - let us know if the insulation seems to make a difference

 

just got back from the Mitty at Road Atlanta and spoke of our kit to the Flying Miata people and I showed Paul from Mazmart my intre setup ---they all loved it --said it was good. trying to spread the word a little---and while i was at it i heard a group of 4 rotor gtp(?) historical cars race. NICE

olddragger, here are pics of your car from the Mitty at Road Atlanta on Saturday.

 

Took my car for a drive (50 miles roundtrip) and here is what I logged.

78 degrees Amb temp - 105 degrees AIT (sensor located after blower) - 195 degrees engine temp at 60/65/70 mph. All temps remained constant at every speed interval while cruising on a flat central Florida straight road.

The AIT registered 107 degrees and 197 engine temp when I bumped the speed to 75 and 80 mph.

After cruising I did a couple of WOT runs (one after the other) with the second reaching 130 mph.

Here are my readings just after the second WOT run.

78 degrees Amb temp - 123 degrees AIT - 202 degrees engine temp.

Also, I was not able to log my trip with the EFIdude due to operator headspace error but I do notice more air filter noise. I assume that I'm able to draw more air because the HPS air filter material is not as compact as the K&N air filter brand. Thus my reason for purchasing the HPS air filter. However, the EFIdude logger will let me know for sure if the air gallons per second went up next time I take the car for a spin since I have plenty of data at WOT with the old K&N filter.

 

Next on the drawing board is a metal version of our Pettit SC kit air bypass valve that I purchased on eBay. It should arrive this week and I'll let you know (as always) my findings. It is basically the same thing except that all the components are made of aluminum instead of plastic. I showed it to Cam and he said he likes it and he reminded me to not use any of the springs.

Been delayed but its deffinatly going in this week.

Looks great.

Have you monitored your intake temps with the methanol injection? I'm curious about a before and after...

Also, at what point or lbs/min does the meth injection activate on your setup?
