Glad the oil cleared up and it's not spewing out anymore!

I've no been following what you speak of with trump and the EPA, though I did look it up and it sounds like the EPA wants to set emissions standards for the entire nation? That seems impossible to do in rural areas where we don't have the resources to enforce that kind of nonsense. Not to derail your thread, your car is awesome and I'm glad it's working properly for you!

And CO is one of those states? If that happens, you might need to get a PO box in NM and register your car here. There's no way any of this would happen here anytime soon.

Nice man, almost looks like you might have been able to catch him on the top end but the race way too short.

I find it funny, the older I get most of my favorite super cars growing up are no faster than my miata is now. Particularly at altitude!

I haven't looked yet (shame on me), but, are there any particular circumstances that cause the idle issue? Mine has an issue with idling on a hot-restart. I.E. I go into the post office, pick up some packages, and come back out and it wont idle for a while. I tracked mine down to heatsoaking IAT sensor (it's threaded into the cold side of the IC), after sitting the IAT's will read ~20* higher until it gets some airflow and everything cools down, then it idles fine again.

can you post your fuel and timing maps? (screen shot is fine). From the datalog it looks like you are running 2D of advance at 30map and 900 rpm which is not enough.

I attached three logs, the first two it dies at the end but the 3rd one it just idled for a long time no problem.
Bring it to me in Erie and I will fix your idle, as long as you are running MS3.
