I had a machinre shop fill it. Not sure what they used but it's been fine for over 5 yrs. I had another machine shop cnc me a spacer to place the rew tb in its stock location so linkage worked and oil neck cleared. Now with the rotary works 90mm I decidedto drop the spacer and make a custom oil neck

Thanks for all the info SK8!!! A last couple of questions, do you have any idle issues? Ive heard of some idle issues and am apprehensive, I seem to have bad luck, lol. I'm curious how it is on a street FD. Thanks so much and sorry for filling your build thread with crap, haha

Have not started the car yet but being on 8 2200cc injectors and methanol with a peripheral port I will be a poor example of a street car.

|
Looks awesome man can't wait to see a pass!
|
Mike,
Looking good! I just got back in to town, and I will get back to your emails etc... |
Looks great
|
Car looks really good.
|

Sounds good!
|
Forget good, SOUNDS AWESOME!
|
Looking good brother I like how you tucked the line under firewall lip.
|
Thanks guys. I have to pull lim and do companies test to see if when the gasket blew if it hurt the motor or not
|
Uh oh, what happened?

Mike, I intend to come back down in a couple weeks. Fix that gasket, EGT, and lets wrap this thing up!
The car did make very good power for the boost level( 20 psi) and RPM(5200). I am pretty sure in the end it will make your goal... |
Want to tune a power fc while in town?
I would have bought an adaptronic if they were available as a PNP in mid 2012 if that makes you feel any better. |
I had the opportunity to see this car start for the first time in person. Sounds super badass. Just from the sound of the engine and the visual of the turbo you just know this thing is capable of offensive numbers! :)
|
congrats man, cant wait to see what it does at the track. 5.9s hear we come.
|
Must be a pretty radical cam in there.
G/L with getting things ironed out, Mike. |
Updates?
|
Hey jay! Not much to update. Ordered a mazda oem rew intake metal gasket and cut to fit the Cosmo ports and semi. waiting on egt box to come back from innovate. Also need to set up a catch can. Just letting go to atmosphere now. Have to wire cooling fan and pick up a drum of methonal next week. Ray should be coming here in March to tune it. Just been busy with my children and there activities. I will at the best just make some 1/8th passes this season since I have no safety mods...
|
Oh. I did score some drag shocks finally so those are on.
|
Awesome build! Good luck
|
.
Sorry for lack of updates. The drag section has become pretty dead so not on here much. Car is 100% ready for tune. Had Ray scheduled but it didn't work out. Hope to have a semi local shop do the tune next week or the following at the latest.
|
Bump cant wait to see what this thing does. agree with you that this section is dying. kinda sad.
|
Mike, did you ever get the tach functioning?
|
Hope everything is working out. Looking forward to results.
