Out of boost?
So i bought a 88 RX-7 Turbo 2. And when i test drove it i think i looked at the gauge and it showed the boost was full, But i went and started the car today and the boost gauge is almost empty.
So what do i have to do? can i buy more at autozone or something? The original owner didn't tell me anything about that.
Sorry, just really bored.

Not funny...Someone asked me that exact question, only he wasn't kidding...
Plus, there was that guy who bought the Talon and was told he needed more "boost fluid" when he couldn't boost the car (it was, of course, a dead turbo).

Bah, the stock boost gauge isn't very accurate. Even when it's reading no boost, you still have a bit left before it's empty. You should really get an aftermarket boost gauge. I think autozone sells a special boost tank, so you can hold more boost before you have to refill.
P.S. I'm bored too
