went to the tracks!

my mods are,

stock ported rebuilt ~ 90k
stock turbo without wastegate (w/o exhaust it does 25PSI)
Duel Greddy SP Exhaust (keeping the boost at 8-9 in fourth gear)
Walbro Fuel Pump 255lph (runs richer)
TB MOD
No intake/TiD
Mircotech (never tuned, very rich)
with some bald *** TIRES

i had full interrior, plus a friend with a video camera and acouple of water bottles, spare, and tool box.


VERY FIRST RUN (first time @ trach with RX-7)


Left Right
car # 121(me) 8(TYPE R Integra (FULLY GUTTED)

r/t .868 1.156
60ft 2.413 2.375
330ft 6.628 6.578
1/8 10.048 10.115
MPH 72.80 69.73

1000 12.925 13.097

1/4 15.392 15.592
MPH 91.16 90.27

for me this wasn't bad, i had full interrior and an extra person, and i own'd the almighty TYPE R.

___________________________________________
My best run.


Left Right
car # 46(chrslyer laser) 121(me)
r/t .736 1.121
60ft 2.436 2.166
330ft 6.918 6.041
1/8 10.684 9.306
MPH 64.85 76.18

1000 13.942 12.120

1/4 16.670 14.535
MPH 83.54 93.47

my best run was 14.5 wasn't bad though, a b20-turbo integra ran exactly 14.5xx, meaning i didn't need to spend much to be fast.

You say the microtech is untuned? Meaning you just got the base map they provide and are running like that? Hows it run, idle, running prett rich?

I'm thinking of getting the microtech for my n/a - TII swap, it would make things alot easier, being I wouldnt need to pay to get the stock, crappy computer and engine wiring harness. Install, starting with the base map, all awesome? I hear good things, but they just dont have the name that the Haltech has layed down with RX-7's..but I like the Microtech...its affordable for me!

yeah base map from group buy.

not so rich that it bogs or backfies, just i know it's richer than usual from the exhaust smell & adding a fiel pump raise the pressure of fuel just a little.

Umm..think you interprted that wrong..he said hes getting 8-9 in 4th gear...he said without exhaust it does 25 psi..but I cant imagine how unefficient the stock turbo is gonna be at 25 psi.

It still comes with a base map even if you don't go through the group buy though doesn't it? Anybody know how much it is to get a dyno tune session with a tuner? I'm sure they charge by the hour? What's it usually take to do it, like 1.5-2 hours? I'm in Washington, doesn't Corksport do dyno tuning?

it depends on the dyno owner,some places do it by runs or hours.

tuning could take all of 20mins or 1 hour, it depends on the car, usually for turbo car takes lil longer.

most of the time, i flux it between 3.5-4, then 5-6. just trying to find every different RPM, then one time i held it at 4 then punch it and drop the clutch at 3rd yellow, that's the one with .522 reaction time.

All Microtech ECUs come with a base map rough-tuned for your application.

We can't, however, condone what 600 HP CLUB is doing. We maintain that the stock map is only good enough to get you driving without boost and low throttle to a tuner. Anything over that is all you.

as the great wise man said don't trip.

i'm those crazy people that really don't give a hootch. if it blows it blows, so far it didn't! now you guys can back your statement up with "600hp club raced his car with base map and ran a respectable 14.5 bla bla bla"

for me is, i feel confident that the base tunning is good because i drove this car like crazy at every point of every rpm of every load, everything just is FINE for me, nothing crazy appeared yet, plus i told rxeng to tune it for 14 PSI, while im stuck at 7-8 i think i'm in a very safe margin.

Hey I think it's great that you're running such good times on the base map! More power to ya, man Just think how much better/faster it'll be once you get some tuning thrown at it! I'm just saying that we can't officially claim that the base map is good for doing such things, yadda yadda. Legal reasons, of course.

Anyway, congrats on a good time
