Can't find this thread about vac leaks. I think it was Aaron.

I saw a post a while back about finding vac leaks, using your compressor. I've used this method before, but I think it was Aaron who also fabricated a piece to replace his intercooler. Can someone point me towards the post, I'm having trouble finding it.

Oh. The PVC piping that substitutes as the intercooler so you have access to the throttle linkage/screws/tps etc. A number of people have done that (like JRAT) and theres a jpg by someone of it. If I find it I'll post it.

As for the air compressor thing that was someone else like Aarron Cake or ????? not me

That's a descripton of the PVC piping. Later a picture, maybe.

HERE is the picture: https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...hmentid=199439 It's the NZCONVERTIBLE PVC piping. Not as elegant as my pvc piping, but it'll do. humor

I cheated in finding the threads. I read KARACK'S post below this one then did a Search using PVC and NZCONVERTIBLE

The engine won't fit on my scanner and my dog ate the camera. Just trust me. I'm totally unbiased and objective.
