MS and 3in Exaust.

MS and 3in Exaust.
I started tuning my MSpnp Fri. And I swapped my 2 1/2" exaust to the automatic miata, and Had 3" put on my soon to be turbo'ed miata.
My auto will now squeel around corners. Major inmprovement. The new exaust on my 5-speed will definately be motivation for the turbo. I need it to muffle. LOL. I am going to put a resonator in it.
The guy I bought the 90 from had cut the muffler off with a jig saw and was in need of a muffler. He had a 3" straight through muffler He gave me. But the car had no back pressure, So I figured it was a good time to upgrade the automatic i daily drive.
So I just poped off about 3" on mine to the muffler guy. And he said he would swap my 5-speed exaust to the auto, and the auto's muffler to the 90, and put 3" on mine for all for $160. I was like SWEET------>!
The 2 bends on the 3" are only like 45 degree's a piece, minimum crimping. Then going to a straight through muffler. I'm sure it wll flow as much or more than the mandrenal bent 2 1/2' I had.
I just need to Pop in the RC550cc's, some tuning and bolt up the turbo.

Right.
I need to raise my second motor up and see if it has had any internal work. It was pre turbo'd by a drag guy. If it has rods and pistons I need to throw in some rings and swap it into my car. But If it is stock. I'm just going to use the motor in the car. But I guess I won't know till we come up with one. I need a motor stand too.

There isn't a cat either. Ya, the rice is flying nicely out the muffler.. I got to avoid police.
And they are EVERYWHERE this week. I got a seat belt ticket yesterday. And then we got pulled over on the way to the muffler shop due to cop being a dick. He seen the bill of sale in the window!
A dude with no shirt, chaps and a bandana can drive a Hardley without a helmet. But I am in danger in a 5000 Lbs Chevy truck with STEEL BUMPERS.

Yea, I'm plaining on having the turbo in soon. I'm just trying to get a feel for MS and it will be on.

I know about avoiding cops pretty well, I had a 3" catless on my last car. Which was a N/A RX8.

I was talking to Nathan about working a deal with Bryce to tune it, which sounds great and all, at a great price, and bryce does great tuning. However I found a guy in garland who is going to charge me the same or less, and I get to essentially let him tell me what to do and work the software, so I learn to how to tune...and the shop in Garland has eddy control so we can hit each load cell, rather than ballpark it. I bet I'll be able to get my car tuned in like 2 hours up to 301whp.

I have been tuning using real time and AFR's. I'm going to try and use VE VX VXM whatever it is called, so I can set it to run off AFR's and see how well it works.

Everything works fine around town and flat on the floor. But I have to turn the AC off at red lights. It trys to stall out. I think it does that since I forgot to lower the rpms settings to 500. Lol. They are curently set at 800.
Sounds cool. I hope I can get some free time. I've been ***** sweaty to the wall. LOL
