Looks good, the engine could use a cleaning though. The paint looks kinda orange in those pics.... is it really that orange?

Probably, although i do have to write a 12 page paper on an electrical engineering topic. I'm thinking the electronics systems on the rx-8! that should be a good topic to study...haha.

Anyone else on here using that additional injector controller? i had never seen one till i bought this car. I'm kinda afraid to crank up the boost because i'm not exactly sure how to tune it correctly. So obviously i'll be waiting for a bit so i can find someone who knows how...

Also, do you think i should make a TID? it is kinda cramped in there with the front mount lines but i think i can do it. I have some ABS and all the fittings i need.

from my understanding, that additonal injector is for high rmp use....but its set stock and ****...if u are producing a lot more power than stock, it would prolly be in your best interest to open it up sooner, alough u def. want to keep an eye on ur air/fuel ratio...

the injector controller has separate settings for rpm and boost as i understand it. you can set extra fuel for rpm and then extra for boost levels and it will add the sum of them when you reach both simultaneously...

what is that device that is holding the old style EVC and some turbo timer together. It is located on the drivers side, near the right leg? I need to get one of those, it would be handy for once I finally cough up the money for an ebc and I won't have to tuck my turbo timer between the seat and the console anymore.


whoops after looking a lil closer looks like an AIC. Regardless I'm sure they're the same dimensions..
