Re: MX-3 SCCA Improved Touring Club Racer Project
I am excited to see what kinds of gains a 1.6 SOHC will see with a BP ECU and a RX7 VAF N/A.. 10 15 hp gain maybe. If you can do it, I would run solid intake piping to the OE air box, the ribs in the intake are what are limiting to the airflow. its allowable within the rules, i'm curious to see wha...

Re: MX-3 SCCA Improved Touring Club Racer Project
Awsome thread man... I am looking forward to seeing how you do when you get it up and racing... You'll really want to swap out that brake fluid for something better like ATE super blue.. Also hopefully you have plans for some portfield pads or such.... You'll need it on the track... As i said earli...

Re: MX-3 SCCA Improved Touring Club Racer Project
Haha, what you can do is run the BP ecu, it timing is virtually identical. It will want to add a little more fuel but that's about it. I ran a BP ECU on my B6 for several years. That along with a BP VAF... Mmm. Or you could find a 2nd gen RX7 VAF, thats the biggest one you can run, OE wise, and you...

Re: MX-3 SCCA Improved Touring Club Racer Project
Very nice, great progress thus far. If you swap in a BP ecu (even the SOHC) it will give you a higher red line, from 6500 to 7200 :) its plug and play. ORLY now? WHATother ad advantages does the BP ECU give me? Ther reason I ask: 2012 GCR rules for club racing "Improved Touring Class" The...

Update time again as of 1/24/11 for operation "Pocket Rocket" As many of you in the great white north may know its been a bit frigid up in these parts recently so that combined with school starting up has slowed proggress overall... However, since it has been awhile since i've updated the ...

Taken from the 2012 General competetion Rules for club racing: "To maintain the stock basis of Improved Touring, updating and/or backdating of components is only permitted within cars of the same make, model, body type (e.g., sedan, station wagon, convertible, etc.), and engine size as listed o...

Re: MX-3 SCCA Improved Touring Club Racer Project
Wow, I love to see this effort put into the car. My only question is.... why did you pick the lamest motor option for a racecar? I don't know the rules you're bound by, but you can drop in a B8 engine, a 1.8L SOHC motor that is visually identical to the B6 you currently have. Difference is the 0.2L...
