November 14, 200421 yr So...after an autocross...I have come to the optinion that the 87+ turbo engine setup/engine management is better. The pre MAF stuff takes some real tuning and adjusting to make work in the 5500+ range so that the 6000-6500 is useable....and you've got to be careful with timing and the vac unit too. 87+ ofcourse MAF is non adjustable, no vac advance...so its "self tuning" to a certin degree....way more so than the pre MAF...so...eeet eeez bettAr. That and I was only 2.5 secs or so off the Fastest time of the day(in the RX with wagons suspension), Pleiades in his 2.5 RS (used to be mine)...with Tein HA Coilovers, V700 race tires and so on and such...so...ive got much room for improvement. Still can add header, DP, intercooler and spyder intake and so on and such...but Im not going to do the intake stuffs yet...just exhaust...intime for the state autox championship if i cant co drive a certin black 2.5 RS in street mod... Oh...and I need some different rear springs...8" tall...400# rate=fastAr!
November 15, 200421 yr I thought you said the RX wasn't going to get modified Is this 87+ engine setup going into the wagon, or is the RX becoming the new engine stand for testing the limits?
November 15, 200421 yr Author RX is new Race car. wagon=retired. wagon=??? engine next. (NA most likely, and back to daily driver)
November 15, 200421 yr I'm telling you man just throw an engine in the wagon when you get some money, I hate hear about its retirement. :/
November 15, 200421 yr 87 + is also better cause the headlight switch and stuff is on the turn signal stalk, and more importantly... the wipers are on the steering column rather than the knob below the HVAC controls. MUCH easier to wipe the window by pulling the stalk rather than reaching up and turning a knob.
November 15, 200421 yr Author Sorry Will... I just can't stomach the mystery any longer. What's a X-Wing? That is an X-wing.
