Hell yea!

 

New MS3 Pro, tune (340WHP @ 18.4psi) , roll bar and top on he car, ready for a little drive DOHC?

 

I think you are ready to do some track days!
Putnam Park with 1010ths late May?
I'll probably go to the Scca event early May.

 

Yes, i think that i will sign up for Putman at the end of May, been working on resurecting a tire trailer that Gus and i built 16 years ago... Did you ever see that trailer Braian?

Took it to be sandblasted and powdercoated today, looking pretty sad on Sunday ��

 

those are some really good lookin curves

 

Thanks, i actually took some boost out at lower RPM's to make the car easier to drive in the street on my winter all seasons, also have a 16 year old that drives it when i take him somewere and i don't want to end up in a dich with him behid the wheel.
Got the car washed today, think that it is time to put on the summer tires

 

Add a key switch that opens the circuit to the EBC.

 

Yep, had that on my ms3x, effectively halfing the power output

 

I think that CODTUS new setup is the ultimate way to go, i installed a boost table switch but could only get only get one boost level working at a time, ebc would go nuts on the other table, then i gave up and installed a cabin mounted manual boost controller "i know kill me now" but i really like being able to dial whatever boost i want.Great for autocross, you can feed it in as you learn the course and the tires warm up.

 

That's fine. But for only 2 levels you don't need table switching. Just kill power to the solenoid and you are back to wastegate, no matter how much boost the MS is calling for.

 

True, still have the switch in the dash and will have to try it.
Started working cutting my track day hood vents, will put the hood on the car and do some flow test before painting it flat black.

 

The tuff test looks ok at 60 MPH ,will do a pressure test sometime soon

 

Finished the track hood


Also installed the oil cooler thermostat sandwich plate and hoses

 

Tire trailer is finished, ready to take my tires and tools the ax and track days, it can carry one or two sets of tires!

 

Winning!

 

best trackday tire trailer evah!

 

Thanks, should have made it a little wider, 245's on 9" ul's fit but dont think that they would fit with the 10" rims... Nover imagined that there would be 10" rims for small cars like the Miata back when i built this thing.

 

Hey random question: How thick is the hood skin metal?
Debating if I want to attempt to weld on it...

 

Unfortunatley this is a steel hood that i purchased without asking if it was oem, i will measure it when i get home, the OEM hoods are aluminum and i think that they are around 1mm thick it is likley to warp pretty bad if you tig it.

 

Got the car aligned yesterday, it is pretty porkey at 2634 lbs with 1/4 tank of gas, 219lbs of my lard on the drivers seat, ac, ps roll bar (no hard top)��
Pretty much ready for next weekend track day! Thank you brother for helping me with the aligment !!!
