Removing 5th and 6th port sleeves/actuators?
-86' RX7 13b N/A 5-spd base model (nothin' fancy) no A/C or Power Steering
I'm thinking about removing the 5th and 6th port sleeves and actuators... is there any foreseeable problems I should be aware of? I have a 2.5" exhaust straight pipe with no cats or resinators with custom y-pipe (also 2.5") & x2 open mufflers. Complete emmisions removal (block off plates used)-no vac. rack, no EGR, no ACV, no BAC, and no air pump (duel pully on alternator). Obviously I have nothing to run the actuators (no cat.) which means my engine will take a dive @ 4000rpm. What can I expect performance wise by eliminating the sleeves and letting the air free flow through the aux. ports?
-yah she's naked...

buy a Racing beat header and it will have an air tube on it... Mine did and the ports worked..
Take it from me I pulled my sleeves and now I wish I did not... Its not horrible but I know it would have been a it peppier, low end, with them in..
I normally drove at 3K or higher so once I left the light it was not a big problem.. I just think it left the light better..
