http://autos.yahoo.com/articles/autos_content_landing_pages/513/big-incentive-for-fuel-efficient-vehicle The company that sponsered the private flight to space contest now has a 100 mpg contest. Top prize for the most production ready vehicle that can achieve 100+mpg is $10 million. Should be pretty interesting to see.

Had my Type R dyno tuned by Eric at IPS. Did a great job. Picked up an additional 10hp since I had it dynoed at SloMo last summer. Added a digital ignition, larger injectors and a fuel programmer. Pretty much just optimized existing systems. Was very happy with the power he was able to get out of it. Thanks again Brandon and Eric.

It throws a Baro sensor light constantly now. The Neo is changing the accurate MAP sensor reading from 2.7v to 1.8v. I need to find out how to have the Neo output 2.7v so when I start the car it will check the Baro against the MAP and okay it.

Sorry couldnt find any mention of the 3220 on their website. The 3211 looks like the one pictured on Circuit City's website. (It is the only all black one.)

Q: I have finished installing my VAFC but whenever I drive my car around, the Check Engine light comes on. A: 1. Make sure that the VTM signal wire has been connected. This wire must be conected on all US spec Honda's. Please refer to the Documentation section of this website. 2. If the settings on the VAFC under wide and narrow throttle have been set beyond +12~14% at any point, it will cause the ECU to believe that the car is under boost. This will trigger the MAP sensor error. 3. Make sure that the pressure sensor type is set to 6 IN and 6 OUT. This can be adjusted on the Sensor Type menu of the unit. That is from the Apexi website in the FAQ section. I keep getting Barometric sensor and Map sensor codes. I am having IPS dyno tune it in the morning so hopefully that will help. I checked 2 and 3 already so that just leaves the VTM wire???

+1 My girlfriend's step-father got a car in his name but, she made the payments on it. When it was payed off he signed it over to her. The sale price was listed on the title as $0 which it legitamly was. The next year she got a letter from the tax department saying she had to prove it. (last names being different didn't help) We got it all straightened out, or so we thought. One year later same problem. Again, go to Columbus IRS office and get it straightened out. Over the next year he got cancer and past away. Then we got another letter about the car. We went down to the tax office again with a copy of last year's paper work and a copy of the obituary. Luckily, we got the same tax agent and she remembered us so it sped it along. That was the last we heard about it. Three years hassle just for a questionable sale price. Cliff Notes: ALWAYS list the real price sold for on a title.

Like it says ^ http://itrca.com/FAQ/images/wheels/wg_mazda_mill.jpg Would prefer with center caps. Let me know how much you want.

+1 Look for one of their outlet stores or their outlets online. I got an aluminum 3 ton "racing" (lightweight, low profile for low cars, one pump to frame) jack and 2 jack stands for $50. (Normally $129)

I think it should have 4 wires. 2 for the heater and 2 for the input/output on the sensor.

Welcome

Pg. 12 of the Owner's Manual shows the VGA In is just to the right of the HDMI In. http://www.elementelectronics.com/Manuals/FLX-3211B_manual.pdf Pg. 33 shows how to set the video settings. It says there is an Auto setting for the VGA is this set to Auto? Hope that helps.

I am installing a Apexi Neo on a 2000 Acura Integra Type R B18C5. I am trying to figure out where to hook up the VTM wire (Light Green). Everything else is hooked up. I didn't see a VTM wire listed on the ECU pinout however, I do not know if there is a different name for it. I assume it is something like VTEC Management? VTEC Timing Management? It says some cars don't have a VTM but, according to Apexi's website, all USDM Honda's have one.

Quite possible they did not get a wire seated properly or they cracked a plug putting it in. When I get home I will check my MODIS and see if the troubleshooting has any hints about the P1830 code.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgftaEa65kE If you look at 0:24 you can see the plane sliding past the cargo plane in the foreground. I was undecided about it being a photochop until I saw this video. The image is supposedly taken by Getty Images. After seeing that video it is easy to imagine a photographer further to the right in the crowd with a good lens and pure luck on timing could have caught that image. Still not concrete but, definatly makes me more likely to believe it is real.

I agree that it is not the best option for long distance traveling. As a DD though this would be a great car. In California there are TONS of extra reasons to have it. Everything from checks form local governments, use of HOV lanes with single occupants, free parking at meters, ZEV (zero emission vehicle) parking only spots that include recharging staions, etc. If it catches on I wouldn't be surprised to see these spread.

In all honesty how often do you travel 300+ miles in one day. I know there are some people that do it but not many. It takes 3.5hrs to charge it from totally dead. I plug my cell phone in every night or every other night, I would be more then willing to do the same with my car if it meant I didn't have to pay for gas and support oil companies/kill my wallet.

Fine change my previous statment to ANY GAS ENGINE vehicle, hybrid, ecotec, k20, or a good old american V8 I don't care the concept of a well performing electric car and what it may inspire other companies to do is very interesting.

No but, if I owned one (as the question stated) and prices kept going up, I would drive it in the rain.

If I lived in Gorda, California (http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/12/us/12gorda.html?hp), definatly. If gas prices keep going the way they are...yes.

There you are SpaceGhost I was wondering when you were going to come crap on my post. Don't know what I did to piss you off but it seems to be a trend with you and my threads.

What does a k20 have to do with an all electric car? That is like saying Civic>Tesla. The whole point of the Tesla is it is not a hybrid, it is all electric. Yet, at the same time it can still perform. Not to mention you can drive it to the store, get groceries and not only have a car still in the parking lot but a place to put them on the ride home. Personally, I can't wait to see the 2010 sedan that they are predicting at $50k-$70k. They also plan to have a $30k version available in 2012. 0-60mph in 4 seconds and it's average operating cost is $0.01 per mile.
