That makes it 19%.

Thanks for quoting Bastage - I wouldn't have seen his post otherwise since I blocked him last year.
Nice to see he still thinks what I say is more worthy of commentary than the discussion at hand.

 

Yeah, he blocked me right after he insinuated that Pettit falsified its dyno-sheets and I had to give him a tutorial on how to !@#$ing read one (with excel spreadsheets and everything ).

Then he deleted the thread and buried his head in the sand to all things Bastage.



I think if I had an ego like his and had been schooled by a n00b like myself I would have quit the forum, but deleting the thread-of-pwnage and putting someone on a block list is so much easier He never even admitted he was wrong, he just deleted the thread and pretended it didn't happen.

 

You really gotta feel bad for guy like that, you now. I meen the only reasons hes hanging out on this thread that I can think of is
1. jelous of not owning a SC and because of that being in the 3 or more motor club.
2. pissed off every turbo owner on the forum except the ones that hump his leg and they even get tired of his crap
3. well, got nuthing better to do and wants to be the first guy in RX8 forum history to break 10,000 posts, way to go!!!
4. likes it when I call him sweety


Dude get off the computer and do something

 

Now that's funny on so many levels.

 

the 10 k club is small, but it is real..

ahhhh, the love i get out of this thread..

beers

 

Sententious and insightful commentary is not Moon's strong suit.

 

BTW - How much liquid are you guys going through with your water/meth systems?
I seem to use a lot - somewhere in the 1 quart to a half gallon a day range.
Now, I'm in boost a lot, but it still seems like that is a lot of liquid.

 

Yeah man, you need to do some more research; he's in the 4 or more motor club. Get with the !@#$ing program

It's funny how quickly he responds to posts over here on the Pettit Owner's thread, but he's got customers who paid ~$700 for an AP that wait almost a month to have their questions answered:

Funny.

 

I've installed a hitch and have to tow around a small agricultural 25 gallon tank with a high flow demand pump just to get to work...oh, no, wait, that's on my turbo F350, sorry....

 

That sounds about right to me. Some times I'll go through a gallon in a day.
But those are few and far between. Usually when I go to the meets hehehehehehhe

 

Yeh, its kinda creepy like a stalker. Hey jeff, are you absolutly sure your last name is Abrams cause I could swear its Dahmer.

 

a quart a day is about right if you are driving a good bit of stop and go kinda thing. On cruise i hardy use any. Course I have the maf controlled system which is a little different than yours?
I have set my contoller to use 7 quarts in 15 miles! I cleaned the hell out of it! No misfires either. I was well below ambient on my iats!

I have a MAP based system, so it only injects in boost and the controller is progressive.
It starts spraying around 3 PSI and hits max at 12 or so.
My EGTs have gone down several hundred degrees on long, boosted runs.
My IATs were never all that high to begin with (about 20° over ambient under all conditions), so it is hard to decide how to tune the controller other than by EGT and flow.
It does seem like you can inject a butt-load of water without it affecting the running state. Kinda weird.

When I pull this motor in the Fall, it will be interesting to see what all of that water does for the internals.

 

Well last night was a fun. I met up with 5 MS3 and 2 MS6. We went to the local friday hang out. 2 of the MS3 and I were on our way to meet up with everyone. As we merged onto the high way. We saw the new 09 Challenger SRT8. Well we took of after it to take a closer look it was a sweet looking car.

As we got closer he took off. That V8 sounded so sweet. We took off after him. There was some traffic up ahead so we let off. Fortunately he was taking the same ramp we were to merge onto another Highway. Once we merged he went all the way to the left lane and slowed down. I was in the center lane and my buddy in his MS3 was in the right lane. I got next to him and gave him a thumbs up. The passenger put their widow said thank you and asked for directions to see if they were going the right way. By coincidence they were going to the meet also. I told them that they were the exit they were looking for was 3 exits away.

Here is the fun part we were going about 60mph. When the passenger put up the window and the driver floored it. I had a feeling that was going to happen so I was ready. He took the jump about two cars. I went WOT reeled him in and then just started pulling away. As we were passing them my cuz in the passenger seat was laughing I took a quick look over and the facial expressions were price less.

When we got to the meet we ran into them (we looked for them and made it look like another coincidence hahaha) and they were inpressed. He admitted he thought he was going to rape me. He wasked what did I have under the hood and I told him a little 1.3l rotary. They were like no ****** way I was like yup ohh and a little super charger.

They told us the Challenger isn't on sale yet but they drive it to local legal meets dealerships and carshows for marketing. He also mentioned that he had had other encounters with RX8s and thats we he thought the out come would have been different.

I wish I could have gotten it on video.

 

You took down a 425 HP Hemi Challenger from a roll??
You don't think that's fishy?
Did you notice if he was hauling a piano or a rhinoceros in the trunk?
Might have been all of those sand bags...

 

Hey Jeff if you don't want to believe me thats fine. But if you like check out the Mazdas247 forum I bet the MS3s will probably be posting about what they saw with their own eyes. You know what threads i post in their better yet.

http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showt...62288&page=226

Check in tomorrow they will probably be commenting.

 

hey all that would mean is that he would have better traction. lololololol

Maybe he had a Turboed 8 in the trunk hahahahahahahahahaha


Say what you like but nothing said will kill the mood i'm in after that encounter.

 

No doubt it was fun!
Those things are really heavy.
Come to think of it, they have 200 HP more than an SRT-4 Neon, but their 1/4 mile and 0 - 60 is the same. Hmm.

 

Look, just because Roland spanked a V8 and didn't blow an engine doesn't mean it's not true.

Some of us could learn.

 

Better yet...wish you could have a header and an ignition upgrade.

You think your car is fast now...wait until the upgrades and you will be totally of the chain.

 

Yeah I am patiently waiting for the BHR/MM Ignition kit (it's taking as long as a Mazsport turbo kit hahaha i'm just playing)and the RB Header. As a matter of fact I got an email from Jim over at Racing Beat. I'll post below. I have the RB Midpipe and Exhasut love them both so I will wait for their header it's about to be released.



I anticipate the price of the header to be around $500. We'll try and keep the price as reasonable as possible.

Nice

 

"60mph"
I am guessing dumping the clutch at about 8500 rpm.
The question; in third or fourth gear?

 

Nice story!And I certainly believe it--
Yea MM I have been thinking about putting the w/m nozzle closer to the actual ports and monitoring egt's instead of the iat's. Or maybe both. The egt's would be a truer picture at this point.
It is amazing how much water meth you can push through this thing without a misfire. Nothing like 116octane either.
