Congrats! Enjoy the installation!

 

Hey guys,

she got 70 miles on her.

WOW! damn lol

 

Looks like that will be some fun on the car, good luck with the install.

Don't forget to tune either.

 

Thread RE-OPENED!

 

Congratulations!

 

Thanks.

 

LOL "rev it.....higher........higher........one more......"

 

My friend didn't understand the concept of a sound clip, or a manual transmission.

 

I love the protege. I think I'll get a subaru damaged subaru forester or something next summer that I can mess around with a bit before our lovely MN winters.

 

I actually bought this one in a pretty good condition. I use to have a nissan sentra 1989 as a winter beater. It broke down going to school in March. The CPU fried, so I had to buy the protege. My gf drives in the summer time and OOOHHH boy does she misuse it.

 

Update Bump

 

Why would you bump your own thread when you haven't posted anything in it?

noobs... I swear.

He updated his first post with pics of a winter beater and another part from RIPP.

 

I was just wondering how you are going to hook up the bov. Wouldn't you have to add extra piping and re-rout some shit?

 

Bump (Check first Post)

 

why didnt you get a boost gauge or a wideband

 

Looking for them. Can't find them a decent price. I need the boost gauge and the Wideband!

 

widebands arent cheap so expect to pay for that one

 

I'm looking for something used around 100-120. Think I'm being to cheap?

 

yup 190-210 is the lowest ull find a new one for and used ones are rearly for sale and they still go for 130+

 

Ripp has a couple widebands for 200$ brand new... I'll probably end up buying one.

 

The problem is when I buy anything from Ripp I end up paying an extra 50-100 bucks in custom fees.

 

ebay has aem widebands for $190ish shipped thats where i got mine.

 

Yeah, I think I'm going to have to go with that. A good wideband is really important for tuning.

 

May be worth looking into the Zeitronix ZT2. Its what I have been using and am rather pleased with it. Don't recall it costing too much either... Actually, $270 but it logs much more than the AFR: Wide Band Air Fuel Ratio Meter

Worth a look anyway.

 

Thanks Man!! I really appreciate it

 

I know repforenzo uses the ZT2. I didn't know where to find it so thanks!

So that gives your boost, engine temp, AFR's? What else?

 

I use my ZT2 to view/log the following:
AFR
Boost (once SDS install is completed - also using an in cabin gauge to watch)
EGT (Requires an EGT probe but fairly cheap from Zeitronix)
Throttle Position
RPM

Side note: I also use a tactrix cable and EvoScan software to log EVERYTHING else. I mean everything. Any sensor/data the 3G ECU/ECM sees so does the Evoscan software. Also, the ZT2 data can be "patched" into the Evoscan software so that you can see it all on one screen or log it all to one file.

The only problem would be emplacement.
I wouldn't know where to put it.

I do not use the Zeitronix display unit. I have mine hooked up via serial/usb cable to a laptop/netbook (for now). I have a carputer installed and an touchscreen LCD molded into the stereo bezel and once the SDS has been tuned and I am comfortable not wacthing/logging the data everywhere I go then I will toss the laptop and just have the carputer display the ZT2 "gauges" on the stereo bezel LCD.

Without tearing up your stereo area or doing a lot of custom work using a netbook may be the best route... although the Zeitronix display unit would work fine as well I'd think.
