Ohio Roll Call
#22
I'll answer for him...yes, probably.....well if he would stoop to being on here, it would be him.
Yeah, I've been talking to Corey. Planning to get it over to him in early April actually. I just need to get it running well enough to get it up there. Mine has a 1.6 turbo tune on it from the previous owner. Same turbo, bigger injectors. Theoretically I should be able to re-scale for my injectors and set up the TSE trigger wheel and limp it up to Slowmotion. Just haven't had it long enough to get it going yet. Or figure out how to "re-scale". As soon as I finish this water pump install (thanks to "hosspoons" for the parts!) I'm gonna start messing with it.
Those Illuminas work out for your friend? I can't remember his name.

Corey seems to be able to make power, but my car never idled or wanted to refire when warm. Corey told me my issues were inherent with using aem...?? w/e
If its logistically possible to get your car to Toledo, go see the guys at Pure Tuning.
The illuminas are another story. They sat installed on my car, with the dead motor, in my garage all last year. Darren(my friend) and I co-built another car to autoX with using my coils/sways/wheels and tires along with a $400 rolling chassis and 2 different junkyard motors. That car with me driving won our "csp" class. We ended up selling those illuminas to another club member around christmas once the season was over and i got all my parts back. He's going to go with something a little more hardcore now

Hmmmm,
That scares me about Slowmotion. I contacted them on the recommendation of Sam Halkias - SCCA EP champ. However he drives an NA TR-6.
I have heard nothing but good stuff about Pure Tuning. Maybe I will chat with them before I make a final decision. Corey told me he would like to keep the car for a few days to make sure it made power and had good driveability. I never got my MS1 to idle as well as I thought it should (batch-fire only I think was the issue) and it wouldn't start well hot no matter what I tried. The whole reason I bought the AEM was for better driveability! The MS would suffice if all I wanted was WOT!

If you're not looking to go to Toledo for a tune, there's a few places down the street from me in Lewis Center (half way between Worthington and Delaware). IPS and Pickups Plus do tuning, I just don't know of any Miata's first hand at either of these. I know IPS is tuning just about everything and Pickups Plus tuned a friend's Mustang GT and GT500 with nice results.
I'm thinking about stopping by IPS after getting my car out of storage to get the car on the dyno to get the tune from about 90% to 100%.

i knew about it, never actually been inside of it. sad thing is i live about 5 min down the road, and my best friend lives practically behind it. have seen alot of nice bikes go in there while working though. yea the bar is still open, and they have a limited kitchen menu. Actually the miata club is meeting there tonight for dinner
