It threw two P0137's (rear o2) but that could be from losing the bolt on one of the two mufflers. It had previous recorded three P0136's (front o2) in the last few weeks.
I ordered a new o2 today just to have it on hand. If I could just convince this exhaust to stay on the car...

You don't have the magnaflow catback by chance do you? I know I watched scheides' old one just pop right off the hanger before. The rod part of the hanger didn't have the little edge on it to keep it inside the rubber.

That wasn't my magnaflow, that was the ghetto catback that came on the car when I got it, made by a shop in SD. The magnaflow has given me zero issues.

Oh, gotcha. Thought it was a magnaflow ;(

What track were you guys running? Short or long course?
Long in the morning and short in the afternoon.

This is actually the nuts working off the bolts. This is the third bolt/nut that I've lost. I picked up some lock washers for the replacement hardware. We'll see if that does it.
The Magnaflow hangars are very well designed, no way they'll ever pop off. My guess is they actually be harder to get out of the rubber hangars than stock.
Surge tank working for you? No starving in the carousel or on the long turns?
Fueling seems to be solid. I saw KnockCEL once when I was entering the main straight but I'm not sure what that was about. It was the only time that I saw knock indicated. AFRs were running mid-12's most of the day...at least on my gauge.
You should have asked to use our camera between sessions. We only took a few videos but haven't looked at any of them yet.

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.
The good news is that it looks unlikely that the muffler is going to fall off. The bad news is that the one bolt holding it on is now stripped. hmpf. I guess I'll be swinging by an exhaust place tomorrow.
Did you get your wideband wired into the rear o2 input yet? Stand-alone logging would be super nice to see through a track session, all the important stuff.
Nice video, I'm going to up the size of the embedded vimeo format, the videos on that site are always such great quality.

I wasn't planning to do that since my PLX OBD gauge was already plugged into the port. I fried the control box the other day experimenting with the wiring (it was frequently freezing and now it won't boot). The interesting thing is that with that thing broken, now the NAV works. It appears that gauge isn't 100% compatible with Mitsu can-bus.
Not sure what I'm going to do now. I'm too annoyed to deal with it at the moment.
Alrighty, you can still log air/coolant temps, timing, boost, knock, etc. Wideband is just icing on the cake. All you need is an analog out though, 0-5v, the PLX has to have that, even the cheapest AEM & innovate models have that.

It does. The quandry is that I can't have both the Tactrix and the PLX OBDII gauge plugged into the OBD port at the same time. PLX has their own logging software if I want to use a laptop, it just doesn't work with Evoscan.
