If there are only 6 units currently available, do you know when the next batch will be ready? If not, can you find out?

I sense a frenzy just like when the CZ first came out, but this is light years better..

Nice......

oh I don't know how it works so much as I've been a benefactor of the results

still haven't actually had my hands on one

really...... maybe you should explain....(mysql)......

I'd imagine this is going to make the depreciation slow down a lot, if not reverse... of course pending a working economy which isnt looking like its going to happen

well I understand HOW it works, I haven't had one in my hands though

mysql

I was trying to make a joke since teamrx8 had use of the accessport far before anyone else here, thus if I could get chancejet to explain to him what the accessport was, it would have been funny. However when I have to explain the entire thing, it is no longer worth it :P

I'll be doing back to back runs on Friday in Denver on a Dyno Dynamics dyno. Curious to see how it all plays out, is it'll be the first time I've had the car on a dyno.

chancejat vs mysql = my head hurts ...

Nobody has knocked the concept of the Racing Beat Air Duct with stock box or Odula Air Duct with stock box combination.

I would expect to see Cold Air Ducts show improvement in colder air and possibly increased air flow.

sosonic

With the Odula, the company has showed air temp. differences between stock and their air ducts. This includes one of our forum members that bought the Odula air duct.

I'm assuming that such temp. difference would hold true for the RacingBeat air duct. Also, the total volume of air that can be "took in" appears greater for the RacingBeat duct. The "ram air" effect, would also be because of the shape of the duct. A wide mouth inlet that changes to a narrower shape, thus helping "accelerating and increasing the proportional amount of air flow" at high speeds.

However, on the dyno. these things would be a bit harder to show because the car is not moving. A data logger, may do a better job in showing differences.

I would have to disagree with the "nothing is better than the OE intake" comment, but that's just my lowly opinion

I would agree that it's not easy to get it right ...

TO ANYONE THAT SENT ME A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ON THE ACCESSPORT:

Please send me a follow-up e-mail with your year/model of your RX-8 so I can ear-mark the appropriate flash.

Thanx.

I'm keeping my REVi intake, because during the move several years ago, I think I lost parts of the OE box...

man don't think I've ever dropped so much cash in so little time... it's like going to Spearmint Rhino all over again!

I know my wallets about to cryy

but the notion of making more horses has caught on too much

Doesnt the AFR look strange to anyone else? I thought that the AFR stays around 14.5 or so in closed loop up until about 5,000 rpm.. The AFR shown in this graph for the stock run is only between 12.x and 13.x.... How come?

MM,

In your N/A tune will you be altering the closed loop maps as well? Could we see a slight MPG increase as less carbon buildup with a leaner AFR when in CL.

Doesn't the stock car normally dyno around 150-160whp on a mustang? So this flash is giving roughly a 50whp increase? If so, this is the best thing to happen with this car to date.

nelsonrx8

dyno for the 8.....180whp i could be wrong

mysql

before 189 whp
after: 204 whp

As great as the accessport is, in the end we have the same engine we have always had. The gains with this will be similar to the gains with the EMU or int-x - all we're doing is modifying fuel maps and timing. So as long as the solution can modify the values properly, then it doesn't matter which you use, your results should be similar.

Those are both very high for a mustang dyno though. They look more like dynojet numbers.

The PCM, as I pointed out back in '05, doesn't have a real closed/open loop mode switch.

Please riddle me this....
I thought the standard procedure with AP users is buy AP. Go to Cobbtuning.com and download base maps.
With my old AP I (that I am used to anyways), Cobb provided many other maps - stage I, Stage II and for different octane. Also they included some nifty maps like valet mode, economy mode, anti-theft mode etc. Is this no longer the case?

thanks.
