Should have painted it a really obnoxious color, then it'd be super sweet.

Looks great.

lol. nope, thats just prolongs the life. No, I will be running lots and lots of meth. 1100cc/min at full boost.

AI doesn't work.... didn't you know?

[fdfreak]

Sure does. Keeps the cabon off the internals and the apex seals happy. but Im not talking about a 50/50 mix. 100% meth

[zbrown]

lol ,dude, i am a big auxiliary injection guy. Why do you think i took the IC off my rotary setup and wont have one on the v8...

I should have put /sarcasm, my bad

[fdfreak]

oh, sorry. yeah, I have been talking to this guy in Green Bay who has been racing rotarys for 20+ years. He just took apart his 500hp setup he has been running for the last 4 years with 16k mi on it. there was nothing wrong, he was just curious to see what it looked like. He said that it looked just as good as when he put it together. Everything was with in spec.

I have very little knowledge about AI , but if it worked for him i figured i would give it a try. If you have any pointers zbrown, please advise.

Looks nice. V8s only stay out of Rx7s as long as the rotary lasts lol. cough LS1.

Yeah there is so much good info on the AI section of rx7club it is crazy, that is the only reason i go there now. haha

what system are you using?

The only thing that sucks about spraying a ton of meth is the effect on your main fueling, since you have to pull so much fuel out. and if something happens to the AI you are SOL with an engine that doesn't like hiccups.

I had mine setup to where the standalone progressively controlled the duty cycle of the AI pump with PWM (AI had its own rpm/load map)..... so there wasn't 2 separate systems.... better, more consistent, and reliable IMO

I like meth, but am a fan of water too

I would run E85 with some, not a ton, of meth/water on the top..... and IMO have as reliable rotary setup as you are going to have

[fdfreak]

yeah, actually Howard Coleman is a big contributer to that AI section at Rx7club. He is the one i have been talking to. That guy has a wealth of knowledge.

Sexyness. I hope your trianglemabob does last, what I mean is I wish you luck.

I did and it turned out looking like crap. It looked fine when it was in the shop but when i pulled it outside, it was blotchy as hell.

[wishinsky]

Think looks sick! Like the lip it makes the front bumper look a lot better i think. Very nice car.
