Pikes Peak International Hill Climb

Just Curious if anyone is attending this years Pikes Peak Hill Climb? It's Aug 12, 2012 and there are a lot of very cool machines going. I'm getting a small group of people organized from the fort collins area to go down and see the race. Its an incredible event.

how sad is that? a 400 whp rx-7 is more reliable than a 200hp protege! unfortunately there seems to be a surprising lack of standalone ecu's that run the MSP, specially plug and plays.

So things are getting ordered this week. Should start the work on in very soon!

No response... bummer. Is anyone interested in this project? If so I'll post details of the build with pics.

It looks like it will be possible to run a piggy back Megasquirt to control fuel and spark and let the stock ECU manage IDLE, AC, alternator, ect and still retain OBD function.

DIYAutotune.com is a trusted distributor of megasquirt ECU products, they even have PNP versions supporting many popular vehicles including mx-3 (you still have to assemble the ecu). Still its a DIY project and there will be lots of work to make it work for your project. Successfully megasquirting a...

2003 Mazdaspeed Protege + Megasquirt

Anyone have any experience with MSP's and Megasquirts or standalone ecu's? I'm doing some research to build a PnP megasquirt. I'm working on a project that has gone through 3 engines now. The car was purchased with a blown engine and the engine was rebuilt - new crank, rods and pistons. The car ran ...

Thanks, Ill give you a shout this weekend speedjunkie. Yep, both those counties have emissions. I heard, and this could be just a wives tale, that Denver was having trouble meeting pollution standards so they started looking at the surrounding counties. Hey chickenwafer, I hear you have a pretty swe...

Emission Testing :(

Hey everyone, there is a pretty good chance that my car will not pass emission testing in Weld County. Anyone know of a workaround/loop hole/shady emission testing station that could help get an Rx-7 back on the road? What do you guys do who have highly modified cars? Anyone familiar with E85 emissi...
