Have you previously been driving it with the boost?
Take out one spark plug at a time and listen for 3 consecutive "phu-phu-phu"'s to make sure you have compression on each rotor.

Put it back and then go to the next rotor.

im sorry Directfreak, my fault for not expecified what car is it. heres the link of my first tread

https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...hreadid=176565

it was my friend rex not mine. but we fix the problem. what is what making the car sound in one rotor ans getting flooded is because the catalitic was melted so theres wasnt a good enought exhaust flow. and the secondarys got fixed too. dont worry i havent drove my car since the last time whe talk. thanks
