Is there any fundamental reason im missing that would be causing the engine to ping???? i have basic knowledge only.

ECU has been remapped. r34 SMIC. Full exhaust. EBC. AFR 11.6 or thereabouts.

Of late the car has developed engine rattle on booth boost settings (10 & 12). Ive since had timing reduced from the CAS whilst i find out whats the cause. On 10psi it produced around 185RWKw on the dyno with apparently no rattle after timing was reduced slightly. Ive since noticed it ping slightly on the street (had a few warmer days) on 10psi.

I suspected faulty fuel pump (its standard), but surely if thats the case you would see the mixtures leaning out?? This isnt happening.

Any ideas would be appreciated. i just purchased a return flow intercooler (justjap) in a hope this might rectify it somewhat. Im also going to grab a Bosch 040 just to be sure. The plan was to be able to confidently run 12psi achieving around 200RWKw without the engine pinging its fkn brain out. Many others before me have achieved this.

This week out of curiosity i filled it with 98 octane PLUS Nulon Octane Booster at 30 bucks a bottle. It seems to have helped but surely this isnt a necessity to run without detonating?? Is there anything obvious to check and/or recommend replacement whilst im having the intercooler and fuel pump installed???

      Oh wow, it's easy to forget how cheap these can be. Probably the cheapest way to travel. Though people in cars here tend to be morons and I would not feel very safe. Were scooters ever big in Australia? It used to be the thing growing up in Europe ~20 years ago. 50/70/125ccm Peugeot or Yamaha and some others. Utterly obnoxious Polini race exhausts. Kick stands that slant as much as possible. So loud. So much noise for really not moving very fast at all. But it felt cool at the time. Not sure where I'm going with this, but there is an aftermarket for mopeds! Though I'd have pictured you more for a Goldwing kind of guy after growing out of the Harley.

      As the MX5 isn't apparently "manly" enough, and I need something for runs to the local shops, and also take to my part time job at the salon, basically I can keep the MX5 away from car parks and stuff......like "flying lockers", I was wondering what I could buy to fix this issue LOL, I pick up a new Yamaha 125 Delight this arvo from Trooper Lu, basically a R1 that you can fit a slab of beer on between your feet, also, it was $29400 cheaper than a R1, so actually it's 2 x better than a R1

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Nah. H2S. H2S is "rotten egg gas", which is what is associated with no cat. SO2 is equally nasty, and if you've ever smelt it you'll know all about it. More of a choking, acid in the back of the throat sort of thing. But you can only smell it in a narrow range up to about 1ppm. Above that, it irritates your mucous membranes, but you don't smell it.
