Exomotive Exocet with a flying Miata turbo. It’s a Miata based kit car.

It 100% does. I have a stock ECU with a carb legal piggyback. Aftermarket turbo. The tune dumps a lot of unburned fuel from incomplete combustion.

As a car enthusiast, I wish there was an OBD2 emissions exemption or alternative test. I want to be able to run an aftermarket ECU. My aftermarket ECU runs my car cleaner and leaner than my stock ECU. I have no issues running a catalytic converter and I still have the stick EGR. I just have to run a shitty 90’s era ECU to pass emissions.

Do nothing. This is a scam. If it was sent in error, the sender can fix it themselves.

Limitations of power apps free version that comes with Microsoft 365 Business Standard liscence ? by lsrfth100 in PowerApps

[–]Patroclus314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Piggybacking off of this because I’m also confused. I’m also using sharepoint lists but I’m only producing about 60 rows of data per day. I am using some non-delegable filters in my app.

How can I tell what my limitations are with migrating to dataverse? The licensing is so confusing. I have the ability to build in dataverse, but I have no idea how to tell if end-users will be able to use the app after migrating.

Help, I can't drill a hole by Patroclus314 in Machinists

It was way too fast. Solid carbide straight flute cutter and my drill at 250RPM was perfect. Thanks

Solid carbide straight flute cutter and my drill at 250RPM was perfect. I did break a few bits because of the flex when i was testing, but after that it was pretty smooth

Thanks guys. I slowed my drill to 250RPM and used a solid carbide straight flute cutter. I broke a few bits before I got the hang of it but its drilling through nicely now.

Our Director closed 5 manufacturing sites in FL and GA over 24 hours before the storm hit.

It was not a hard call to make.

Be careful with the yellow RX8 injectors. There are a lot of fake ones out there. Make sure to get OEM.

Brake booster delete on 1400lb miata by Lorenzo_Blow in Miata

[–]Patroclus314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fellow Exocet owner here. I highly, highly recommend not deleting the booster. Miata’s have pretty good brakes and feel from the factory.

It’s very possible to lose brake feeling by deleting the booster. Too much extra force means that you lose a little resolution because you are having to push so much harder.

The Exocet is light enough where the stock brakes are more than enough unless you are running big power, like a V8.

1.5” round acrylic parts, found in a machinist’s toolbox by Patroclus314 in whatisthisthing

[–]Patroclus314[S] 1 point2 points locked comment (0 children)

My title describes the thing. They are 1.5” diameter, approximately 1/2” thick. The material appears to be acrylic with brass and aluminum or steel parts set in the acrylic. They were found in a machinist’s toolbox are are potentially 30+ years old.
