with the corn.
Wow nice. Any idea how much power? Can It beat a v6 auto at least? Lol
Before the boost it made 126 to the wheels on a mustang dyno... with a knock sensor code. No idea what it is now.
Ebay turbo...:skurred:

Nice MX-6. :)
i dont see any problems with them. I ran one for three years beating the hell out of it on my mx6 and it finally blew.. which was totally my fault. I took it apart right when i bought it (when i was 16..) and didnt realize they were balanced. I put it back together all screwed up and it STILL lasted 3 years.
nice sleeper man.. is it tuned?
No.. there is no form of tuning done to the car. Just the missing link.
How much did this build eventually end up costing you ? And why don't you go up to 6-8psi ? I don't think you'd need any fuel system upgrades for just 6-8 psi .. right .. ?
Ive prolly got around 600 in it as it sits.. and thats me doing all of the work. I sure wish i would have 'built' a four cylinder.. SO much easier to work on thatn my mx6.
if hes already at 15AFR at 4,theres no way he can run 6 without any mods.
im at 7psi and I need the 12:1 FMU to stay at 12-12.6AFR..
Yeah ive thought about running an FMU but ive steered away. I like my gas mileage and that would just eat it up.
Nice MX-6, is it tuned?
For the most part it was only ran on an fmu. In that picture it is tuned. I turned a 12.8 @ 117 on the fmu.. and just this past year i went 12.7 @ 114 on the megasquirt MISSING second.
Why would you replace the MAP sensor instead of using the stock one? Stock is good for 10.66 PSI. Which MAP sensor did you replace it with? A GM 3-BAR? Just wondering which one you ended up using there.
Its a map sensor off of another honda. Plugged right into my stock harness. The sensor that fits this car is installed into the TB and i didnt feel like making a plate to cover the hole.. it also (i believe, cant really remember) didnt have a vacuum line nipple.
(i needed that because its untuned.. the stock computer cant see boost or it freaks out.. so i needed a missing link in between somewhere)
Hahaha this is siqq. Spray bomb the IC black to stay consistent with the sleepiness!
Nehhhh.. i mostly did it just to have the intercooler hanging out ;)

You say you're location is "with the corn"... could this possibly mean you're from Iowa also?

Thought I recognized the Indiana plates.. Man driven through there a bunch, you're right - not much there besides fields, at least around the highway!
