    Throne for the Queen - Enclosed Trailer Build

    A couple more improvements. Tire rack! This one took some modification to clear the car, but the fit is great. I had to shorten the horizontal section by ~5" to gain enough clearance. Straps! I got some over the tire straps that work with the e-track and they are AWESOME...

    More Suck, Less Starve

    Lots to say about this, because it's so true. Let me start by saying rulemaking in the SCCA is 100% driven by the membership. Want a rule change - submit a letter into the system. It gets reviewed by the category advisory committee and then put out to all membership for feedback if they think...

    More Suck, Less Starve

    I think I have a setup that works! We took the car out yesterday and started with some unknown amount of fuel (I guessed around 6 gallons starting). 11 runs, and added 1 gallon around run 9 because I was getting a little concerned lol. Car ran GREAT all day. Got it back home and we pumped...

    Rhythmic RPM Jumping

    Nice, thanks for updating on the solution. Why have a WOTBox at all with VersaTune?

    Rhythmic RPM Jumping

    Posting here for when I'm back to civilization. I've seen some crazy behavior like this playing with the clutch switches. If you haven't figured it out by Monday, I'll jump back in.

    More Suck, Less Starve

    Developed some issues over the weekend trying to run it lower than before. We had only gotten it down to 8 gallons last weekend, so I started with 5 gallons this past Friday. That almost immediately had issues, only 1 or 2 runs in. We heard the pump starting to whine while idling in grid...

    Mazdaspeed6 front axle - Duralast 11245N

    No problems over the weekend, so it seems like a decent option. Pics are attached.

    Mazdaspeed6 front axle - Duralast 11245N

    Posting to confirm that this does, in fact, fit the MS6 passenger side front axle. I was in a pinch and rolled the dice on an autozone replacement after I ripped the boot on the 18 year old original axle lol. 3 day event this weekend, so I'll post up if anything goes wrong, but they measured...

    More Suck, Less Starve

    Coming back to this since it's fresh in my mind from the weekend. Before the event, I pumped out all the fuel so we could start with a known amount. Then after the event we pumped it back out to measure how much we burned. Start - 10 gallons End - 7.9 gallons # of runs - 7 (all about 40...

    More Suck, Less Starve

    Some minor updates, but most importantly - the car is RUNNING with this new setup. After thinking about the ITFP being in free flow mode to fill the basket, I decided that we would try it out with the elimination of the return line pumping into the basket. I already had everything plumbed, so...

    [SOLVED] New motor crank no start

    Make sure the big black resistor thing is plugged in. In stock form, it's on a bracket around the HPFP area. I can get a picture of it if you need.

    Returnless style fuel pressure

    Do you have a datalog where fuel pressure drops? Looks reasonable to me. You have a rich area from 4500-5000 rpm that is taxing the system a bit but it's not dropping pressure to a point that I'd worry about.

    How To - Returnless port injection setup

    You'll need to change the basket assembly if you want to run an external FPR. [The ITFP sits in a carrier with an integrated FPR.] Definitely doable, but you can't just remove the FPR.

    Highest MAF g/s on a k04

    Mass flow can be a little bit misleading, but 270ish is decent. The MAF cal directly influences that #, and if it's off or wonky you won't see a direct correlation between mass flow and power. In the early days of E85, we would see over 400g/s in logs (with K04's) because the only way to run...

    Power Cut off, help! Fuel?

    Do you have a way of exporting a data log to csv or Excel format? The live data log...sucks.

    Throne for the Queen - Enclosed Trailer Build

    Folding table and benches...We needed some seats and a table that don't take long to set up, so Johanna found some locking hinges and hardware to make it happen. We lock the benches in the up position, and the table folds down and stays there. Super quick to go both ways, huge improvement.

    Throne for the Queen - Enclosed Trailer Build

    A couple updates. The first one I did a long time ago - in floor storage box. I wanted to practice some aluminum welding, so I did this all myself: Next one is recent, and something we've sorely needed - cabinets. Pit Products is fairly local to me, so I ordered an 8'er from them...

    I've always had to call, but tend to get super quick responses that way. [Have to remember these are junkyards you are dealing with.]

    More Suck, Less Starve

    For sure, a 255 pumping at effectively 0psi is wayyyyyy overkill. Not something I had considered beforehand, and it has me rethinking how the return line routes. More to come on that as we test things out.

    More Suck, Less Starve

    The overall volume of the tank is unchanged, I can still put 15 gallons into it if I wanted. But, I think we burn about a gallon per run, and the new basket is right around 0.5 gallons. With the constant fill from the ITFP and return, it's never going dry lol. Once we get the car back on the...
