It sounds SWEET when he fires it up inside a garage though I had my back turned to the car, busy disassembling my engine, then they fire it up... kinda caught me off-guard

Paul has a full single RB Exhaust, header presilencer and primaflo. and sounds kinda funny bouncing off the concrete wall

you need Apple's quicktime viewer as Windows Media Player won't play it correctly.

Thumbs up

It is loud in the PC, I could only imagine in Real Life.
Sounds like the motor is VERY Responsive to the Throttle.

Either Lots of good power, or a light flywheel..

Either way, congratulations on a Job well done..

hey paul you have the pine apple racing sleeves installed, correct. Or if not when are you going too. the reason i ask is that a correctly sealed RB exhuast prima flow or not should not be Barfing flames. if you've got those sleeves though i could understand. anyhow the above is going off my exp, which is a rebuilt 13B with RB long primary + dynomax magnum race. i am still considering sealing the exhuast again with copper seal to quiet it down some more.

to any interested the large straight through muff at the end of Rb exhuast is loud.

I think I'm running a little bit rich wich is what I wanted. And yes I have the Pineapple six-port sleeves. Sounds like your set up would be a little loud. Not that that is bad but I just wanted a faily fast car that I could talk in. But in the AutoX car...Hummm

Im still wondering why flames are so good? My thinking goes flames + cars+ gas = BAD

Nice looking, running car...

I suppose its more of kewl factor, like the top fuel dragsters spitting huge flames out the exhaust. Or the road racers that belch giant inferno's on decel around corners

Well my megasquirt got here the other day, and I'm getting geared up to put it together. We'll see if I can get the little -SE to puke flamage. I should prolly seal up the exhaust leaks first so I don't spew them under my feet

I think a nice ball of fire w/ a real strong backfire is about right for fueling on a rotary, means you're not leaning out

its like a Haltech F9 (Fuel only) computer. comes as a kit you assemble and can program via laptop.
I'm sure someone will have a link to it soon.
I too am curious how it will work on a rotary

A MegaSquirt controlling a pair of GM TBI units would be very cool indeed
