Just not a fan of Gold. Anything.

rx7 vinnie 02-08-2017 04:34 PM

Black and gold is my favorite combo..... Already looking at something else as far as wheel/tire combo.

I'll be sure to polish the wheels on the 8 up for you REALLY nice.


Brian,
I would ask if you can access port tune an RX8, but I don't have a winblows 7 machine... I really need to compression test the bridge...

We shall see, I'm very curious what we can get out of it. This may not sound right but I think I had more power carbed, felt like it at least. . efficient, hell no! but it was nitty, gritty, and downright dirty with power in excessively high RPMs (not good for tranny BTW, I'm reminded that I need another now that I mention it). But with that being said. . . Now that I'm EFI and everything is smooth and functioning properly, that may be the very reason for the lackluster feel. . You know, like an RX8 :p I guess my car needs more grit. TURBO?!

No worries, I actually almost forgot where that list was started and still had to search for it.

It could just be like MC's car.... the first time I tuned it on the dyno it felt great, but on the street the transition wasn't quite right and the car was a little jerky, the boost came up WAY fast because of a slight lean hiccup @ 0psi. Car made 411rwhp @ 14.5psi on an Apexi RX6. MC built the engine and used stock Apex seals so I was a little easier on the tuning than I would be on my car.

Then I got my hands on it a second time. This time my engine, my build, my choice of Apex seals. I spent a day street tuning the car to perfection, then we went to the dyno. This time I got to my normal level of aggression while tuning. Shooting fireballs, bouncing off the rev limiter, etc etc. MC, Bawb, Jack and Levi were there. One particular backfire was rather loud and all four faces went ghost, they thought I blew it. I scoffed and kept tuning. Got to 12.5psi and 397rwhp before a strap broke. MC wouldn't let me go any farther... I was bummed, I could've gotten 425rwhp but it was a little too close to DGRR so we stopped.

A few days later MC called and said something to the effect of, the car is slower than it was before, it's not as violent, it's too predictable, drives like a stock car until you mash the throttle and all the while I'm thinking, these are compliments :rofl: but it wasn't as jerky and knarly and felt slower, even though it was actually faster. So it could be one of those situations where it feels slower, because it's actually smoother and not nearly as violent.

It could also be that you were about 20* retarded when I saw your timing map but without zeroing the timing and getting it on a dyno, throwing that much timing at it could prove detrimental.

That being said, I love me some turbo rotary.... unless it's a renni.... in that case it's like re-electing Obama, you know it's a complete waste of time and going to be nothing but a disappointment so why are we even talking about it?

Soooooooooooooooo off 89 there is a DUI education center, a Cheesesteak factory (whateverthefuck that is) and Barrett Firearms Manufacturing :rofl::willy_nilly:

My question is, where is the nearest airport?

BNA it about 45min-hour from Murfreesboro.

TitaniumTT 02-14-2017 11:15 AM

Flights in and out of there suck! I can't get to JAX without at least an hour layover. LAME!

Nashville airport isnt that bad. Just keep looking at days and flight times... clear your cookies before you search again too.

TitaniumTT 02-14-2017 11:47 AM

Done and done.... changed days and everything etc..... nothing direct to Jax FL..... lame.... need to rethink now
WTF - CHA is even worse!
Knoxsville is even worse than CHA!
No wonder DJ never left.... he couldn't!!!! :rofl:

Im surprised there is nothing direct to Nashville

TitaniumTT 02-14-2017 11:58 AM

Here's what I'm trying to do..... Leave the Wednesday the week before DGRR. Drive to MD and spent the night. Thursday leave and drive SOMEWHERE within a few hours of the Villiage. Leave my car, no idea which one, hop a plane to Jacksonville, FL. Spend Thursday or Friday until the following Wednesday or Thursday in Jax than fly back to wherever my car is. Hop in and CARAVAN to DGRR. Drive to CT as normal on Sunday......
Trick is finding a cheap direct flight or I'll just drive all the way to FL which I do not want to do.

Which airport you starting out from? I know there are direct flights from PHL to Nashville, would think you could fly direct from any of the big NY/NJ airports too.

TitaniumTT 02-14-2017 12:04 PM

Have no idea where I'm starting from. Idea is to drive most of the way down, hop a flight the rest of the way, return and then head to DGRR... then drive home.

FC Zach 02-14-2017 12:50 PM

Brian, you can stay at our place and/or keep your car here.
