    i've been in and out of this forum for a while, looks nice btw... but aren't there some injectors that are better than the z5's but a bit smaller than the 230cc miatas? i remember reading something about a 215 or something what were the z5s?

      Most likely there are 215's out there but if I ever want to tune it more in the future I won't have to swap injectors, I'm under the impression the z5 injectors are 161cc, so I'm running almost as if I have 2 extra injectors in the rail. Solutions?

        ROFFLZ miata ecu

        Because increasing the displacment the ecu thinks the engine is is a good idea.

        Why do you think that would come close to working?
        And there is nothing plug and play.
        Have fun splicing.

          well since a miata ecu isn't a good suggestion, what is? maybe a standalone system? maybe one that compliments a turbo also? wouldn't be to bad of an idea i guess. splicing wires isn't hard, just make sure you got the right ones in the right spot and its easy





          so your running more fuel outa a stock rail and your running rich? i don't know much about cars or how a fuel injected system works exactly but i'm guessing that a piggyback system that lets you control fuel on the fuel injectors or a new system that would also let you monitor/adjust turbo setings would maybe be benificial to you, your already in this far might as well

                  boost this, going to be 3k by the time I'm done!

                  Not sure if this is helpful but wanted to share some of the results from early on in the build. Hopefully this provides some answers and an idea what exactly has been done and how it all fits in this compact engine bay! I think I'm going megasquirt, not sure yet, the fabricator is saying emanage ultimate, either way I need to get on it a.s.a.p. Disty almost fully retarded, no pinging just doesn't have the same low end torc right now without the management system. Anything above 2k rpm's creates good torc, below 2k rpms is another story. I believe I'm not hurting the engine internals when I boost because ignition timing speeds up as I do, so having the disty almost fully retarded keeps me from pinging! air/fuel meter says I'm running rich, fuel pressure @ 45psi-50psi. Still idles like a dream.

                    I love this. Keep up the good work. I will start to turbo my car soon and this is very helpful stuff.

                      Can anyone tell me what the letters mean at the end of the codes? I'm lazy since the majority of the build has been completed and don't want to take out the center consol! If there's another way to get to it, great.
