Need an 8.8 mhz crystal of the HC49 variety for my rev limit raising mod. Think they are used in lots of TV'S .

This one..... http://www.donberg.ie/catalogue/passive ... 38mhz.html

Problem is, you need to spend a minimum amount of money 20 or so and they only cost 40 or 50 cents each.

Just checked and they don't have a crystal at that frequency, closest is 9.83

Too high John, just want a 10% increase cause any more will lean the mixture too much.

Shane check out "overclocking ecu" on miata.net or google it. Wont do anything on a stardard engine except raise the rev limit but i need to stop the fuel cutting off at 6900 as its now able to produce power up to 7600.

1.6 are different crystal wise but apparently it works on them too.

if you get a port polish and a lot skimmed off the head as well as raise your
rev limit youl make good use of the extra revs.
might just do this.
