  1. A guy I work with keeps me up on the latest as far as newer engines ( I'm stuck in the dark ages of Datsun), but he was telling me about this particular engine. A simple head swap and other stuff and you get a screamer NA motor ! Sounded like it was pretty easy to get 300 NA. I guess I need to crawl out of my cave- lol
  2. So why was it lean? Didn't you have the mixture wheels close to same adjustment ?
  3. Whatever you are searching just include Hybridz in the title or phrase
  4. Another thing to check. I once had problems with the Float bowl to nozzle rubber lines collapsing under heat. They were collapsing at the bend . I could actually reach under there after the engine was warm and feel a flat spot in the hose. This cut off fuel flow to the carbs
  5. Haven't ran the pressurized version of the Mikunis , but I would agree that I would drop the main air down a couple of sizes and maybe even bump up the pilot one size . Maybe too much fuel but better than too little
  6. On my P79 head I was considering drilling into coolant passage between 5&6 and tapping it for the sensor
  7. Sounds a little like my last dyno shop experience. Not going thru the whole story but in the end the owner said he had found a niche market catering to Lotus crowds and really didn't care about any other business. This was very much different from my first visit with the guy; maybe cash was greener then? It does suck to have so little data -especially AFR. On my last run the operator said I was almost dangerously lean(14) at WOT, contrary to my 13.1 I was showing on my gauge. He also stated earlier that his tail pipe sniffer might read lean? So what am I to believe? Going with a different dyno next session
  8. I agree with these guys that I wouldn't waste time with a CHT . The MS3 with temp sensor and Map daddy and baro correction thru the software and you'll be set. TPS should be used as a secondary load sensing . MAP would be much easier to start with
  9. One piece throw away type with a non cleanable cartridge is all that matters. Nothing to come loose internally and block flow
  10. Google MegaSquirt ignition maps here on Hybridz . There's a thread somewhere that the guys shared their maps. Start out mild with 10-12 initial timing and make towards full advance ( 33-38) by 3000 rpm . Then you can start getting more aggressive from that point on. At high vacuum settings for cruise you can add in more timing for economy
  11. New harness is not a bad idea - especially if there not labeled, plus the longer runs. Read and read and read . Lot of good articles written by MS /DIY TUNE, about systems and how they work together . Got to know your own cars wiring also so you implement the MS in the proper places
  12. Chickenman might be referring to me. I asked what fuel filter you were running because I had a similar mysterious issue that plagued me and it turned out to be a faulty filter . Specifically glass type Mr Gasket
  13. I run 14mm high impedance with the n42 intake- no drilling required, but pintles do need changing .
  14. Yes you have to use the T5 shaft and shorten it by an inch or so. Or have DS made . You ALSO have to have the diff flange from the turbo drivetrain . It's a dedicated DS , so everything has to match . The shifter will also be in a different spot in the console . Lots of info out there
  15. Your R&D skills are something to be envious of. We haven't had a thread this juicy since Monster's turbo intake!
  16. I plan to build my intake with injectors at the flange( as close as I can) . I thought it might be a good choice of intake for a stroker build with 35mm runners . Your not going to find that on any stock FI intake, I believe it will clear the hood also . It sure would be a pretty piece if someone wanted to buff it out. Built in mount for BOV
  17. New Zed, Your saying the runners you measured weren't longer that a stock gasoline.? I measured almost 13" runner length on the diesel intake- way longer than any gas intake.
  18. If you look at the top of the runners at the flange you can see OEM marks for injector holes! ? That's what I'm going to do. It's tight but it would be better IMHO. How many of these intakes do you have to mass produce?
  19. I think I have been talked out of a cam sensor for my motor:) One less sensor to worry about. I think I read early in my FI adventure that performance gains are minimal with full sequential . I'm wired for it if I want to though.
  20. I was trying to link the MS3 tuner studio explanation of sequence settings
  21. Sorry, I thought the link was more direct thus not needing any explanation
