she runs!
 
started it up today and she runs great! megasquirt is all sorted out. time to get my ass to a dyno and get tuned. should be next weekend! cant boost on it alot yet but i will say the bosch bov sounds awsome and my exhaust is muuch quieter now. even with the cutout open its not bad at all. more updates next weekend. maybe some numbers. got a few things to do like make some headlights and fix my brake lights and break the clutch in. after 5 months in the making and its finally working :):bigtu:

Moved over to Megasquirt. (MS section)

EDIT: And moved back over to the B.S. Section because I'm a sympathetic person.

Alright alright, I'll think about MS once I get it all together and running!

Yours takes 5 months and is an almost complete restoration/turbo project. I am just throwing on a turbo for low boost, and I'm not even close to done at 5 months!

mxv 02-18-2007 08:16 PM

well alot of it is idle time. waiting for parts and waiting for funding to buy the parts. id say about 20 hours went into the ms system. accually painting it and prepping it seemed to take the longest for me. i haaate doing it!

megasquirt section, this isnt about my megasquirt, this is about my project finally being complete. my victory thread.... got moved :squint:

miatamania 02-18-2007 08:19 PM

lol, pm someone to have it moved back ;) congrats.

mxv is that one pic next to the MS pic a megaview??

mxv 02-18-2007 08:31 PM

that?

if so thats the new chip that comes with the board. i am having to use the older style anyways currently. if that is the picture your talking about.

mschlang 02-18-2007 08:38 PM

That's the MS2 daughterboard. As far as I know (which isn't very far), it hasn't been used w/ spark and fuel on a miata with the OE ignition system. Hopefully that comes in the near future.

edit: Looks like a lot of hard work went into the car. Looks good!

adbradley 02-18-2007 08:58 PM

yeah that was it

ecugrad 02-18-2007 08:58 PM

MXV,what suspension are you using.

mxv 02-19-2007 07:00 PM

thx guys, its some gc knock offs from a friend i got for free :) 450's f and 350's rear with stock shocks haha :( agx's on the way soon. drive ok now though but give that a few days, its already getting bouncier and i have only put about 15 miles on it. those 15 miles i drove are with no doors or fenders or hood or front bumper. haha. talk about paranoid of cops, i feel like i am driving around a pound a weed trying to avoid the fuzz. ill get some vids up sometime. getting tuned next weekend so ill be laying my rubber down next week.

UofACATS 02-19-2007 08:07 PM

No doors, fenders, hood, or bumper? Dayum.

Thats some nice work though. Good job, it's coming together nicely.
