When my MX-3 put down 210 @ 8 psi


Stupid clutch.....


Go Mazda! And I just hope when I sell it this summer there will be a TII left for me to buy....

 

Good job. I'm trying to figure out what kind or boinger to get for a daily driver. Maybe a Mx-3...

 

I cried all night long then drank a lot of booz

 

124.8hp

 

all 210 front wheel horsepower does is help you understeer through corners, but other then that good number I bet that is a blast to drive

 

only a piston engine could live through the detonation that thing saw. All of our numbers got beat by a turbo'd integra that they guy majorly detonated on his 2nd run. That Integra was knocking pretty bad after the dyno runs.

 

210rwhp.... Shure is alot of power. CJ

 

The 225/50/15's I put on fixed that. Oh does the car run on rails now...


But yes, I did detonate, I just put the engine in, not even a week ago, and checking the timing was my mistake. It was at 12 degrees, when it should of been around 6 -8. So it is at 6 now. Runs way better, and now if I can fix this clutch issue I guess I can go get my runs in at everett and throw down some #'s with +5 psi, at least

 

I didn't cry. Layed down 218 to the rears at 10 psi on the stock turbo in my fb and code blue threw down 286 at 12 psi I believe. . Nice talking with you over there. I seriously thought they were going to have to push you off the dyno.

 

Oh no, I have been 4-5K clutch dropping lately and I think I cleaned off whatever was on my Clutch, for some reason it is holding fine now....

 

Glad to hear it. Your mx3 is pretty cool projet.,

 

yeah. i liked it. but why cry. hell, i got about 2000 in mine and ended up with 170. now i need to seriously tune the bitch.

 

nice numbers, but that detonation was worriing me!!!hope it was just a timing problem! let us know how do you when u fix yr clutch...

 

Ya, like I said, timing is fixed now, and injectors are better tuned. Talked to the Spec Clutch Tech, and he said that a little oil from my first engine blowing (it was losing compression on 1 cyl, so we went out had fun, blew it up, a Great learning opertunity, I already had another so it made it more fun) might have been causing the slight slippage. So He said personally he would go do some 5K clutch drops, and if it still slips after 500 miles, then you need a new one, as Spec the company, I need to send it in, and if it is slipping due to filth they would properly clean it for me, for shipping fees only.

 

yeah oil will do it...
