yes wheel alignment is needed as she gets doing the watusi and i do like that sound.
the maximum boost i have seen is 15.5 but i need to get te intake temp down as the dumb water meth injection controler has craped the bed i think so i am going to have the megasquirt handle that i am not woried about putting a maping for the water / methanol injection as i am seeing 8.5 pounds of boost @ 2100 rpm so i am going to set it to come on with 6 psi and 2500 rpm minume and over 50 percent throttle postion . After looking at my data log i see i got to 70 precent throttle in second gear and i am hitting 15.5 psi of boost with a total of 15 degrees of ignition timming so i feel that i will be able to bump up the timming and get more power out of it

Today i bought a solenoid valve that to meter the water / methanol with a pwm signal this will be more precise i also bought a larger nozzel so i can get the intake temps down i am going to go with a larger tank some time soon

I think i might buy another fiero to strip for parts like all of the AC stuff i will know in a few weeks if it is still there and i have enough money to make a resonable offer

well it looks like it is getting time to put the car up for winter i will get the water / metanol hooked back up using the megasquirt controlling it but i think that there will only be a few days left i want to drive it due to just bad weather . i would have liked to be further along with this project but i am happy with the way it is turning out .

That's okay, Mark. We sure as heck don't want to see you and the car slip-sliding off wet/icy pavement. Wait until you've got dry roads again... and then give 'er hell.

well today would have been a nice day for a ride but i worked on the house as i did need to get the work done before snow flys

ok i have the solenoid valve now for the water / methanol injection and want to know if any of you have used a megasquirt 3x to control tjis as they do have that function i am wondering what your mapping for the water / methanol looks like

I feel your pain, I have been working a house/yard project for a couple of years and just watch my hobby projects collect dust

Rickady88GT you are not talking pain after a few year that is abuse to not work on your project car
