I am mainly using the body of the X, nearly everything else will be replaced/upgraded in some way.

Here, we have removed the box around the radiator pipes and will be replacing them with oversized silicone hose. The box will be spot welded back into place for a clean finished look.

An 8 point race cage is being installed beginning on Tuesday and will pass through a replacement dash that I had sent from back east.

Here, the car is being measured to se how square it is. As it turned out, this car is PERFECTLY square! The project manager said he has never had a car that measured as true as this X!

Finally getting started...

Living here in Southern California, every corner you come to has a kid driving a tuned import who thinks he is cooler than sh*t. I really look forward to being able to dust these boys with my poor, old Italian car.

[FONT=Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Tahoma, Arial]<!-- google_ad_section_start -->The car is passed until 2003. After that, we will experiment around and see if it can get a waiver. Because the car will be equipped with an Electromotive Tec 2, I will be able to tune the car with a laptop from inside the car. It may be possible to de-tune the engine for testing enough for it to pass.... I will need to have a cat installed though. When the car is finished I will have it "pre-tested" to see if it is clean enough to try this approach. Another possibility is it may become a show/race only car.

[FONT=Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Tahoma, Arial]<!-- google_ad_section_start -->Jeff,

With an Electromotive TEC II it would be simple to program the base fuel map to run the car cleanly (toward the lean end of the spectrum) at part throttle and cruise. Then at wide open throttle, as the boost comes up, fatten up the mixture to make best power. It would run clean and deliver good fuel milage until you put your foot down, then away you go. This assumes that California's certification test doesn't require full throttle.

Just as easy would be to build a lean base fuel map that ran very lean just to pass emissions and load it any time you had to have the car tested. It only takes a few minutes to load a new map and if you kept both on file, changing between the two would be a snap.

I spent many an hour riding shotgun in my own car juggling a laptop and a digital air/fule ratio meter as we rode up and down an abandoned runway in third gear. I worked out all of the part throttle mapping this way. All of the wide open throttle mapping was done on the dyno.

There is no full throttle testing (of this I am sure). So, in a couple of years, (if CA doesn't change it's rules), I hope for a clean bill of (smog) health!
