Boost????
FELLAS,
I AM CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF JOINING THE FEW, THE PROUD, THE ELITE GROUP OF RX-7 OWNERS. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS THREADS ON BOOST, RELIABILITY MODS, POWER MODS, ETC. I READ AN ARTICLE ON "ENGINE WARM-UP" AND MY QUESTION IS...."HOW DO YOU DRIVE WITHOUT "BOOSTING"? I THOUGHT THAT WAS IMPOSSIBLE. ANY COMMENTS OR ANSWERS HELP A GREAT DEAL. -BIG NAPO |
Please take caps off...sorry I just cann't stand that
Anyway, I drive without using boost a lot. You just don't give it that much gas and take off slow. Also at cruising speeds you really should not be into the boost. Get a nice boost gauge and if it is sitting on the vacuum side then you are not using boost. |
Just shift at low RPMs.
If you have a boost gauge installed (and if you get an FD, you need one), just watch the boost gauge and shift before the car moves from vacuum into boost. |

BOOST WRAP?
OKAY, OKAY,,, PRETTY SIMPLE....THANKS! I WAS ALSO WONDERING IF BY JET-HOT COATING "EVERYTHING", (INTAKES, DP, HFCAT, EXHAUST, MANIFOLD, EVEN THE IC PIPES) WILL THAT "SIGNIFICANTLY" LOWER THE TEMP LEVELS OF THE BEAST? I WAS ALSO GOING TO GO WITH "ALL" M2 PERFORMANCE UNDER THE HOOD, APEXI BGAUGE, BUT I WANTED THAT "DEEP" RUMBLE TONE FROM MY EXHAUST (NOT THE HAIR-DRYER ON CRACK TONE I HEAR FROM THESE JABRONIES ON THE STREET TODAY)...OBVIOUSLY NON-RX-7 DRIVERS!!! ANY SUGGESTIONS OR COMMENTS WELCOME!!!
