Be honest, that's not nearly gutted enough for you

Blackbird's photo just made me realize how much the ND resembles the Catfish.

When we had an open house with the ND, there was a Catfish parked right next to it and I couldn't help but think the same thing.

Excuse me whilst I clean out my pantalones.

I sent that video to a bunch of subie friends and the response was far better than I expected.

ALL OF THE GLORIOUS NOISES!!!

From the SEMA floor, Edelbrock supercharger kit for the 2016 MX5! OEM-level quality and CARB legal! Uses a Gen VI Eaton TVS 900 supercharger with integrated water-air intercooler and includes an ECUtek tuning kit.

Interesting, I wonder why the TVS 900, the Edlebrock kit uses the TVS 1320 on the BRZ.

900 has less power potential.

1. Wonder if they will offer a powertrain warranty like they do on the BRZ?
2. Hopefully it won't need an aftermarket signal modifier to idle correctly and not surge in the midrange like BRZ kit.

I wonder who they got to get around those mystery "torque limiters" that the battling ECU tuners guys agree/disagree even exist...

18psi 11-01-2016 02:55 PM

so much win in here today

Leafy 11-01-2016 08:49 PM

gay tvs 900 is for pussies. 1320 is the proper size for a normal person's 2.0. Still too small if you're TNTuba.

Apropos of nothing, you should hit me up when you do miata ish so I can come and learn/cut my teeth.

needs a Kenne Bell 4.2L for daily driving, 4.7L for track, amirite TNTUBA?

1. Yes
2. Likely no issue with the TVS900

The lead guy on this project is a friend of ours who used to work for Magnuson (producer of our MP62 kits for the NC). He was also the lead on the BRZ/FRS kit - and we have him to thank considering that Edelbrock wouldn't have even touched either of those platforms a couple years ago. The skinny from him is they went for the largest blower they could physically fit on the ND, and the 900 was a real squeeze requiring some creativity to fit. At any rate, they feel it's the right blower for this engine.

No secret sauce here, hardware is done and they've just begun working on calibration. They have already run into many of the same limitations with the software and in the words of their R&D lead, ECUteck clearly hasn't unlocked enough doors to get deep enough to be able to make unrestricted changes yet. This will all get figured out in time through the diligent and hard work of tuners/businesses working with the software - the more people are working on this and giving feedback to ECUteck, etc. the faster it'll get sorted, so it's great to have Edelbrock working on this stuff too. They have four full-time guys in the calibration department with a ton of experience.

Meanwhile the AVO kit is done, minus CARB and will be shipping within 8 weeks or so.
Ours is ordered. Then maybe we do a QBE60G Helical.

I wonder if one could get the auto ND ECU to send a simple 0/12v, 0/5v, or grounding signal to actuate a shift solenoid. Many other EUC related complications I'm sure but,, the potential might be to use the Auto steering wheel with mini- flappy paddles to actuate the solenoid to run the shifter. Paired with native DBW control and you have semi-auto up and downshifting with flatshift and auto blip. And the ability to run 400bhp through. Might be fun, dunno.
