It does, that and traction control and I have added 4 egt sensors and a few other things. I have used about every option the MSPNPro has, E content sensor too.

 

Nice. The "pit lane limiter" on ms3 is great. Hold the button and it cuts spark and builds boost lol. I've been itching to dick around with it.

 

Ive used the pit lane limiter a few times. Im going to try to get the actual rolling launch control going if not the pit lane limiter does work decent haha.

Ever wondered what its like to get spark cut with the clutch engaged at full throttle at 60mph haha? The car bucks lmao

 

cool build.

not entirely different than my own build... keep in mind its not a Miata lol.

 

So then the logical follow up: why not air to air?

 

Logical response to your logical follow up: why not w/a, because i want it, because its cool, because aerodynamics plays a huge roll in hitting speeds in the 1/2 mile, less air in the front bumper the better

 

ahhhh, that's right, you're probably going to seal off the whole front end for drag.

k I get it now

 

800hp turbo on 400hp parts.
Curious what your budget is?

Subscribing for the carnage!

 

Haha, I totally hadn't thought about this either and was purdy confused...

Can't wait to see this build and car in action.

 

Only "400hp part" in this build (and this is according to mt.net) is the transmission

 

small update, few more cool parts in, and everything fits!

 

Cool stuff.

 

This looks like a party. Love the water to air cooler, so nice and tidy in the engine bay.

 

Are you going to be building cranes/support braces for all that stuff btw?

 

I had a similar thought, especially with all the water in there. Otherwise only the 2 manifolds would be ​supporting the weight. And that's a long manifold, I guess if it's sch80 stuff tho?

He must have some cool supports in mind, can't wait to see what they are.
Lots of cool stuff there.

 

Maybe it won't matter in the 20 odd seconds it takes to finish the 1/2?

 

There will be a support on the under side of the intercooler probably bolted to the block where the AC bracket used to be and curved around to support the bottom. It will probably be made of 1/2 steel rod.

A crane of sorts is also in the works for the turbo but a lot of fab guys have told me its not necessary. As long as there is a GOOD flex section in the downpipe not far after the turbo.

 

The car will be driven on the street way more than on the 1/2 mile strip.

 

Fab guy checking in.
Weld a standoff to the turbine housing and brace it to the engine block. Cranes don't do much. All OEM turbo systems I have seen bolt the turbine housing to the block and OEM's don't do what they don't have to. FWIW, the guys that do the Alpha turbo kits for Nissan GTR (T1?) spent the time to have CNC braces milled that use the turbine housing bolts to brace to the engine block...

I would definitely consider bracing in the method that the oem/high end guys use.

 

Ever considered that its done that way OEM because its cheaper?
