Tried it with the original stuff. Updated to the MSnSextra stuff upon a suggestion, niether works. Both will get everything but RPM working.... when it should be everything... including RPM.

do you have a scope available to you? or in the least a store that sells them so you can buy one and return it? I'd check that the stim is outputting the signal. If not, I should be in the new house in a few weeks, then I'll have an address for you to ship the stim to for testing.

I'll see what I can find, but I don't have a scope on hand... so i'll check shops.

Sorry I promised to help more and havn't done it... I've been low on time lately. I will help you out as much as possible if my schedule ever clears up (going to be working a 14 hour shift tomorrow it looks like, so maybe I'll get done early on friday).

Splitime 01-29-2007 01:53 PM

Its all good. Im about ready to send it to the msefi.com recommended electrical tech. He will probably fix it in about 2 seconds... send it back then I can finish it.

Arkmage 01-29-2007 04:13 PM

sounds like a reasonable plan... what does he charge?

I think 45 hourly shop rate. He does electronic repair for his living. I talked with him, looks like i can send it and he'll do some more of the build during the hour paid minimum.

Guy seems to basically be the go too repair guy for the MS people.

Arkmage 01-29-2007 05:06 PM

not a bad deal, although one hour of repair is about 15% of the MS cost.

Splitime 01-29-2007 09:36 PM

Packed up and going to him tomorrow.
He's going to trouble shoot it and then with excess hour left continue the build to save me effort.

Arkmage 01-29-2007 09:56 PM

score.

Splitime 02-07-2007 03:34 PM

Looks like bad component on the Stim and one on the MS. Fixed and coming back. I'll be finishing it up... then its fab time.

Arkmage 02-08-2007 09:36 AM

rock on... glad to hear repair went smoothly.

Splitime 02-12-2007 09:07 PM

I have rpm... time to finish this thing and get to the fab work.

Weeee....

cjernigan 02-12-2007 09:12 PM

Nice, get to it man. You have it installed to run NA while you fab or what?

(Or are you the guy that has to travel like 2 hours to a shop to work on the car?)

Splitime 02-13-2007 04:20 PM

1.5hrs to the warehouse. With the MS ready (finished full build on it today, I'll do the miata specific mods tomorrow), we can trailer it to the work area and get too it.

It'll be started up on boost. Car is apart and ready for build.
