I've been working on the resonator a bit more. I wasn't satisfied with the performance and luckily I had recorded a sound clip of the exhaust before adding the resonator. I imported the sound into Audacity and did a frequency analysis: As you can see there is a peak around 99 hz and...

Buy a new harness. The JDM engine sits in a RHD car and the glove compartment and therefore the ECU is in the left hand side of the car. The harness is therefor shorter on a JDM engine. So new harness or splice.

Well they don't make the M8 any longer. This situation seems similar to buying an M8 just before the M800 came out. So you are saying that MoTeC will be marketing the M800 along the M1 series when the M1 series is ready? Anyway the pdf you posted on the first post states the...

Well that is new to me. I understood this thread as if MoTeC would be introducing a new line of ECUs in 2009. I guess they are not. The reason for waiting was that I would like the newest technology and not buy a product that was about to be retired. I'm talking to Pectel at the moment to see...

Yes I know. But the current line is getting old and if a new line is almost ready I'm waiting for that. Besides that I have been looking into the Pectel SQ6M. It looks very nice. Not much documentation on their website though. I have asked them for a manual and stuff but I have heard nothing...

So are we still at least one year away from launch? I can't belive that Motec can miscalculate that much.

Link?

I need DBW.

Any news? Been holding off a purchase for almost a year now.

I think I heard someone put a bit of alcohol in the tank together with regular gas to pass emission.

It is actually made just like a trombone so it can slide in and out. The car is at the undercoater now but when I get it back I'll try to slide it out to 50 cm from the 42 cm it is at now to see if it increases the dampening at 180-200 hz. I was just trying to calculate the wave length in...

I guess around midway between turbo and tip of muffler. It is just so I can double check with the speed of sound. I might try to add a bit of length to the resonator. I suspect that is a bit short and actually muffles more above the resonance than at the resonnce and thus could be made more...

What would be the average temperature of the exhaust gas in the exhaust system at normal operating temperature? That is post turbo.

Got the pictures:

I forgot my camera so the welder took some very nice hi-res pictures which he was going to email me, but he has had trouble doing so - most likely because they are too large. So he is going to send them one by one tonight. I hope I'll have the pictures up later tonight. We mounted it in...

Yes I have been looking at that one on ebay. I just don't know if the quality is good.

Yes I don't know if there can be any side effects. I don't notice any though. I'm really happy about how much nicer the car is to drive now. Does anyone know of an electric 4 inch exhaust cut out? I'd like to put one at the end of the resonator.

I have no device to measure that. Besides the resonator works by dampening a narrow frequency band so it might be difficult to measure. But it is very much quieter. I'll try to record a video when the car comes back from the under coater so you can compare with the previous one. It went from...

Just finished the branch resonator. Took a while since my welder had a lot of things to see to. But now it is on. We didn't spend much time tuning it. We just set it at 42 cm as I calculated and it is much quieter now. My wife pointed it out immediately when I came home from the...

Still haven't done the transmission cooler setup. Does anyone know what size fittings to use on the transmission? Anything that will screw right in? Regarding thermostat I assume that the typical engine oil thermostat will do fine here too?
