JL1RX7 · 11-22-2013, 06:44 PM

True true! Still running stock computer?

85rx-7gsl-se · 11-22-2013, 07:21 PM

Emanage piggyback that comes with the Greddy kit.

85rx-7gsl-se · 12-05-2013, 06:55 AM

Well its official...rotor 1 is dead. Dreaded solo bounce.

djmtsu · 12-05-2013, 07:11 AM

Blame the emanage.

Ditch it and get an Adaptronic!!

85rx-7gsl-se · 12-05-2013, 07:56 AM

Dude I don't have that kind of spare cash. I would likely just ditch the turbo before going to a different ECU setup.

Hey Nate..... If you wanna have a VERY long and in-depth conversation about Renni turbo's, the greedy kit, and the adaptronic, hit me up via PM and I'll shoot you my cell phone.... I have more experience with those than I care to admit..... the emangle and the greedy kits that is.... the adaptronics I have a lot of experience with as well.... but I like those....

85rx-7gsl-se · 12-05-2013, 10:58 AM

Thanks Brian. I may have to take you up on that. Right now I just have to get a good motor in the car and have it going for DGRR 2014. Hope this doesn't turn into more hastle than its worth. I am in it cheap enough I could part and profit or go back N/A, but I would really like a turbo 8.

estevan62274 · 12-05-2013, 11:07 AM

Man sorry to hear about the engine.

Hope you get her back together for DGRR this year.

85rx-7gsl-se · 12-05-2013, 01:03 PM

Thanks Estevan. I bought it knowing it could be blown and budgeted accordingly. Still surprised how well it fired up and ran given the state of the engine. Oh well. Absent something major and unforeseen, it will be at DGRR.

JL1RX7 · 12-05-2013, 03:45 PM

Hoping the housings are still in good shape.

85rx-7gsl-se · 12-05-2013, 03:52 PM

You and me both. Thing ran so damn good I am keeping my fingers crossed.

***TitaniumTT*** · 12-05-2013, 04:45 PM

With one bad pulse an apex seal it is not....
Nate.... You're gonna have my number in a few minutes.... Text me and we'll set up a time to chat if you would like...

Jack.... What the hell you talking about anything but 5W-30... That's all I run but Mobil1 because track and gas mileage....

JL1RX7 · 12-05-2013, 04:56 PM

Brian if you shift through all the crap in the oil threads on 8 club most agree 5w20 will blow the engine. 5w30 or 10w30 are the two most common agreed upon usable oils. Me I have run 10w30 since I got back in 10 without any issues. Still strange not to pour the syrup of 20w50 in a NA.

85rx-7gsl-se · 12-05-2013, 04:59 PM

Just to clarify. I get one bounce on rotor 1 and 3 bounces on rotor 2.
