    Swapped connectors. Gauge doesn’t jump full hot when I turn the key on now. Should be good.

    FYI, both e36 obd1 harnesses I have indeed are two pin connections for the temp sensors. Only 1 pin sensor I can find that is close (distance wise) would be for the oil pressure switch.

    (Manifold temp sensor may also be 1 pin as well - but I ruled this out because the length of the harness is a dead five away to where it connects to)

    Awesome that this thing is so close! 

    I know that the way I have my car set up is one connection is for the gauge, the other is for the ecu readout, and if you flip them, the guage would pin itself. Same with my E24, but that has one single pin, and a double pin. I have had the luxury of finding this out with both cars. lol

        Rumor has it that burnouts (with videos) actually clear this up the quickest.

                Well, MS3 Pro is on the way.

                Never really liked the idea of the chiptune and no datalogging capability.

                Thankfully the turbo Miata has been a good learning experience

                  I have spent a few hours already looking at piggybacks, emulators, and logging systems for OBD1. There just isnt a proper tuning solution that doesn’t involve guess and check.

                  Nothing will run a stock-ish engine better than a stock DME, but a completely different EMS like megasquirt is really the only solution if you want it dialed in 100%

                  Logs are awesome

                                      In the quest to lower intake temps, I have come to a realization.
                                      After much deliberation with snap, wasntm3 & staring at the engine bay for hours- air to air and air to water Intercooling have been tossed as there is not sufficient room. Which leaves meth injection as the remaining option.
                                      Next up on the to do list is to replace the intake & charge pipe with something a little less plastic that can hold some threads and dissipate heat better than the 1/4” thick abs.
                                      Also I know my MS3 can control the spray, but at this point I’d rather get something that has its own controller for simplicity sake.
                                      If anyone has some experience with any specific meth kits or if you’ve pieced your own together I’d love to hear about it.

                                        After rotating my head 90 degrees onto my shoulder, I noticed that you have lots of ample room for all sorts of things on the left side of your engine bay......

                                        air to air and air to water Intercooling have plenty of room to party over there.

                                          Info on the Moroso coolant expansion tank? I wont be able to use the Zionsville setup anymore and that looks like a nice solution.
