My 2000 Pro
I'm not really clear on how to post pics but, here's a link to the site Wil made for the MAPP II

My car is the black 3rd gen under "Jeremy Thomas's 2000 ES". Also, the pictured fs-ze engine is mine as well.

Re: My 2000 Pro
Jeremy, It's looking really good. Glad to hear you've got the issues solved and it's running great. How big of a seat of the pants difference did the FS-ZE make?

my car
the rims are tenzoR shu-4. the spokes are gunmetal; the lip and center piece is chrome. Thanks for the compliments.
The difference with the new engine is nice (I can't quantify it with times, only feel). However, I can see, according to the tach, that the engine revvs much faster, so you get into the power band quickly. With the old 1.8L there have been times when I hit the gas and the car was slow to respond. The fs-ze has much better throttle response.
The fs-ze is made for the protege. It's truely the power this car deserves (of course I'll always take more
)
I talked to Derrick from Corksport today and he informed me that the ECU he was having made for the fs-ze should be ready any day now. So, with new fuel maps and a redline between 7200 and 7500 RPM I'll get the full potential from the engine, hopefully!
