      About half, I still have a bunch left. If you are going to use it, make sure the surface is very clean if not you will get rust forming underneath.

        updatezzzzzz

        I made a 3.5 inch intake with a vibrant 6 inch velocity stack and filter. It was grabbing way to much hot air from the fan.











        Finally made that leap and bought an AEM infinity 6 and got it tuned!







        Pretty good number for stock engine.







        stay tuned more coming

              updatezzz

              Added some fancy gold jamz



              15inch BBS RS faces came in...



              test fit is very tight fit but i think i can make it work, still debating of stepping it up to a 16 or 17.... ill sleep on it..........



              Valve Adjustment



              Repainted the valve cover



              Drilled some holes in the valve cover baffle, to prevent oil getting into the pcv that blows into the intake manifold. So during left hand sweepers and elevation changes oil would get sucked up there and burn it into white smoke. At the new track near me Dominion Raceway, I was smoking screening everyone behind. Very common for S2000 engines.



              pic from s2ki forum



              New Mr.sideways Radiator w/ 3 inch core, different design than my previous radiator. Rather than flowing top to bottom on the hot and cold side. It flows across then down then back across.





              I also started on duct work to force the air through the radiator.



              pic of it done and I also added a Peterson Catch Can



              GF bought me new badges!!! COT dam she is pretty cool...






              First test was Road Atlanta @ Gridlife, I must say it was a bad ass event! Def go again











              Supercharged frs and K swapped miata























              One of the scariest track I've been to so far, there were 11 wrecks that weekend. I went off about 4 times and spun out at Turn 7. I did let my buddy drive my car and he also spun out at turn 7 and almost caused an accident. Lesson 1 never let anyone drive your own car unless its a pro-driver.

              I didn't get to lay down a fast time which was sad but I will be back.
              Next steps are shaving more weight and adding aero with some dtm styling.

                            The infinity hardware is pretty nice and faster processing speed if i recall correctly. Software is pretty good too. I would of gotten the haltech elite but it was actually more expensive. I managed to get the infinity and patch harness for a lot less than the haltech elite cost by itself. My tuner also really liked the tuner software. The car feels super smooth and almost like oem.

                              Any idea what this thing weighs with all the changes you've done? I would think it would be pretty light.
