davefrith - cheers ill give re-worx a call.

Davegtt - i picked the car up for 7.6K, I brouhgt the mods and RXmotors fitted them while it was having a general service etc..

rextreme - thats cool looks lush, whas thinking along the lines of 5 spoke or multi spoke , but im strapped for cash and i need the ECU first.

John Yorke - ill see if i can speak to Evil Rotor and see if he can sort me something.

Cheers every one , great help.

Hi guys;
So here\'s a novice\'s question...
Why, exactly, would a 4" exhaust and no cat make the engine run lean?

I\'m a novice to rotary engines and have not modified many piston engines in the past other than building an 1835CC engine for a VDub I once had...:p

Wouldn\'t the induction side affect the lean/rich running of the engine? unless the exhaust had an O2 sensor removed that would not then provide feedback to the ECU.

I ask as my RX7 is coming in from Japan next week and has an aftermarket exhaust (not sure of the exact detail yet) but from the sounds of it I need to be wary of preignition if the exhaust bore gets too big?

:confused: :confused: :confused:

Mikee, depending on the year of your car, you can get away with different mods.

Earlier models (before circa 96) only have an 8 bit ECU. This means that after doing say the de-cat and air filter you want to be looking at the ECU, as the standard unit will start to run lean. Its a programing thing.

On the later models (post 96) had a 16 bit ECU, this was better able to deal with a couple of mods (i.e. full de-cat and an air filter).

The fuel system is on say a full exhaust system and air filter with the correct fuelling mods can be ok. Just get it checked on a rolling road if you not sure.

Thanks for the dteails Fish.
My car is a \'92. Will check the ECU. As the car is ex-japan (who run with a higher octane?) would the ECU not have been a problem in the land of the rising sun?

Best get this checked out then. Hmm thanks for the details.

With these mods would anyone suggest a better ECU, the car is a 92 Effini, its also pre Cat,

HKS hardpipe kit

ARC intercooler and induction Box

Blitz Nur Spec racing exhaust

F-win racing aluminium radiator

Cheers for any help

Unless you are doing anything really crazy to the car I would always recommend the Apex\'i Power FC aftermarket ECU.

It is the most used and therefore most supported replacement ECU for the FD.
