do new mazda turbos have the boost pills built in , or in the lines

as the subject states, im having some secondary boost issues, and I pulled off the lines that are supposed to have the pills in them but there are none, but I dont have primary troubles. I just figured that the new turbos had them built in since all 95s were like that. anyone know for sure?

yeah i had the same problem. all you have to do is get under the car and pull the little elbow off that has the prespool and wastegate nipples on them and simply drill them out. then hook up two manuel valves or something to get the boost where you want it and to control the spike.
