from a role? 19's = smoke show till third gear for me

i wouldnt stick it in, and yes i would pull the caps too. Although id also rebuild it with oem stuff. A fresh bottom end is good to have around!

spoolin you figure out anything on your setup?

can i sleep yet?

add more fuel pressure and pull more with the safc to get higher fuel cut, there are limits though. fuel cut all day at 16psi on my setup with the cooler weather now.

any bolts left over from the dash removal? something still loose?

what do they/you use for tunning and how are you monitoring timing? this isnt shop talk of how to extract max power. its how to get your car running right. Which from the sounds of it, the shop cant do using oem adjustments. Oem over shop tricks any day of the week if i had to pick.

no love for the oil cooler? injectors are going to get flowed and tested by an injector shop right?

fp only comes on during cranking, not with key in the "on" position.

cooler was soaked in lacquer, degrease, soaked in water, soaked in wd-40 and finally flushed 2-3 times in fresh oil. Held a full qt(give or take a bit) which is right at what mazda specs it at iirc. Both end tanks get HOT with thermostat installed, opposite one barely gets warm with it out...

Im picking a cooler out tomorrow. Do you have any way to test the rx-7 one? ill ship it to you and you can do what you'd like with it. I have nothing to measure pressure drop or anything like that, Just a hack saw :D

Mine is a few years old and the heater circuit is out of range. sucks until egts get above 600f or so. oem=16 years, NGK splice in = 4-5 years

Took the thermostat out, oil psi is back to normal. :D Still some very light bleed off to the cooler but over all psi is back to climbing in the 30+ range above 3000rpms like before the cooler install. Guess the cooler has to much of a drop across it for safe use with a non shimmed (or...

A new filter head to block gasket as well. #96732-31070, cost me $7-8 OTD at local dealership The spring jdub speaks of is #15132-21010 seen here CLICK Shouldnt be but a few bucks as well. Im surprised you didnt have an oil leak if the bolt was that loose

Do it right, or do it twice. This car will beat that into you....

my old one had a thick layer of white rubber covering all the connections in it. op did you clean the afm electronics itself (little slots near top of column) or just the connector?

what damage will leaving them out cause and can they be put in with out piston removal?

cooler holds full qt + filter and lines, There is ALWAYS flow through the cooler. When the oil is cool enough to keep the thermopelet from expanding and shutting the bypass port a good portion bypasses it just not all of it. Have you noticed from a cold start its like a switch is being...

Take the thermopelet out and run it with out it installed. In theory it should run higher oil psi since its bypassing MOST of the cooler like it does when the t stat is open. Since this is the ONLY thing i have changed on mine, it is starting to look like the coolers pressure drop is more then...

well similar issue, just got it running. Cold psi is normal 20+ idle and low 40's crusing. Once hot i cant get it above 20-25 psi. I stopped revving at 3800 rpms. idle is perfect 4-10 psi. No shims on the pump, stock filter head with relief valve blocked shut routed to remote filter head...
