yes the meet starts tomorrow and it will be every thursday night after that at 9 o'clock. i really hope to see some of you guys there tomorrow. it is totally not just an evo thing, i have friends with stage 3 s4's, gti's, evo's sti's turbo miata's mercedes, ect coming and hopefully i can get a hold of some guys with exotics (enzo carrera gt ford gt austin martin f430 ect ect) to come out to a few of these.

hopefully see some of you guys there, oh and jake, if you get off work at 830 that gives you perfect time to come up! haha

Randy from Mad Dog Cycles was the one who filmed that vid.

Saving an off is easy, all you have to do is stand on the throttle and keep shifting!

i am officially signed up for the scca track day thats happening on saturday the 28th i know some of you are going to be doing it and hope to see some of you out there!

oh yah and i was at miller go-karting today and i met vesko and his whole evo crew and all i can say is wow they build some amazing cars. the all black race car and the white ix rs with cf hood and trunk and huge wing and stuff are probably the two most awsome evos that i have ever seen. plus everyone was really chill there especially the guy who drove the gutted white rs that is almost stock other than suspension

But just because you are out of MAF does not mean that it can't make more power. I over ran my stock 2G MAF at 13 PSI and 7500 RPM. That was 45 pounds/min. At 20 PSI, it still made a hell of a lot more power then 13 PSI, but the MAF signal had flat lined at 45 pounds/min by 6000 RPM. Anything above this RPM point and the ECU had no idea the additional air was there. To get it to hold a decent A/F ratio, you would just fatten up the top end and other then the "map" looking funny, the car ran fine. Provided the airflow remains constant, you can easily tune to WELL past the point of the MAF over running. Only problem is, what happens when temp or air pressure changes???

I want to do some e85 stuff, but am waiting until its a little more available. They keep popping up all over, so hopefully soon...


Got a log from the car so we can see MAF frequency? I wouldn't be surprised if the MAF is overrunning (I'm actually betting it is).

The E85 is well worth the inconvenience of limited places to fill it up. I don't think they have added any E85 stations in Utah in about 2 years... I know a guy that sells E98 for $3.00 a gallon though. From there, mix it 85/15 with C16 and it is supposed to make one HELL of a race gas mixture. A local 700 WHP 2.0L powered 1G DSM was asking me if I would tune his car on it but I've been pretty busy with my own stuff and haven't had the chance to help him out.

If that 570 HP EVO has the injector and pump for E85, it would be a no-brainier to setup a map for it. Same power (likely more power really) and only $3.00 a gallon...

I'm there, likely instructing you Riley! Hopefully I'll have sold mine by then and maybe have something else, if not, then I'll just be there to instruct.

It is possible, i'll have to dig up the logs. From where we were in the map though, it didn't look like it. He was on alky, so I think that helped quite a bit.

Not my car, but is a good idea. If I didn't burn so much fuel at Miller I'd try it out there, but I'd have to come up with around 25-30 gallons for a track day.
