Host on Photobucket and you can resize them to whatever size you want.

Should be a good time.

The event itself is taking place at my favorite venue, where we always have very long, very fast courses.
And for the out-of-towners, we've got camping/BBQ/bonfire going on for Friday and Saturday nights.

Check out this link if interested: https://www.rx7club.com//showthread.php?t=905660

(I'll butt out of your Indiana discussions now)







.
This is the only bump I'll give this. Nobody is interested in coming up to play with us? Maybe I'll have to come down there for an event sometime then...

I just wanted to say thanks again to Blake, Drew and Tony for helping me get the 7 back on the road. I drove it home last night and it runs like a champ.

Thanks again guys.

Sounds like fun, but I have no rotary, and my RX7 is setup for straight line duties. Do appreciate the invite though!

Glad to help a fellow 7 owner out.

Hah, I sold the 6 speed out of my car, swapping to a built autotragic so that I can chase down Tony.

Finally got my car all together and running on the MS. Not running well, so its time to tune, anybody with MS experience is welcome to let me know some tricks...

Shouldn't take much. I just ran a BLAZING 15.7 at Norwalk.
Sounds like your setting that mug up to be a straightline rotary killer.
I can't wait to see it!!!(obviously only the tail lights)

Ghey.
Sell it.
I've played with their software once.
It's just...too universal.
Do you have a base map to start with?
Holla if you need help tuning it.
(Hint: install dual EGT gauges about 2.5 inches from the exhaust ports. EGTs are crucial for rotary tuning.)

You know when you said you ran a 15.7 for a second I thought you were talking about the CRX. Lol

Yeah the software is a little odd. Although the new Tunerstudio isnt too bad. I am having trouble figuring out how to get my laptop communicating with the MS via usb to serial.
I have a base map that Aaron Cake put together I am starting with.
I'll let you know if I need a hand
EGT is the next/last thing on my list...

Finally got it connected and loaded aaron cakes map onto it and it ran for a few seconds then died, now no spark for some reason...

I wouldnt mind another base map to try to start with if you know of one Tony.

How are the plugs?

Fouled plugs won't show spark if you're using a timing light.

I went through at least 4-5 sets of plugs when I first got my haltech.


I don't have any megasquirt maps.
