Boost Problem:Found problem but need help
Hello,
I need your help. I have problem with the bosst pressure that don't go above 7Psi. I guess i found the problem. I replaced the "restrictor Pills" that go from the Wastgate with the one of the boost controller, then i removed the boost controller and i left the new restrictor Pills.. Now, making some reserch on Steve Cirian Website i Understand that this is the problem. May be that my english is not perfect but please what are esactly these restrictor pills?? Are just a rubber hose that restrics with a little section or are more complex??? Someone Know the stock size of these pills and where to find it?? Thanks and Best Regards Pietro De Lorenzo |

They are tiny little plastic pieces that are hidden inside the stock rubber lines that you removed for the boost controller. I dont know the exact size, but they are quite small and allow little air through. You can swap in a bleeder valve and adjust it until you get the correct boost, search for "home depot boost controller" and you should find instructions on that.

^ be very careful when you do this. more restriction = higher boost, i think thats how it goes. if you wish to do the mbs mod, make sure you follow these directions carefully:
http://www.robrobinette.com/boost_controller.htm in the link above the restrictor pills are located in the the red hoses marked pre-spool and boost pressure(boost controller goes here). and there steel pills not plastic, if you lived closer i could ship them, i have an extra set. in the pict the black thing in his hand is the hose and the silver thing is the pill. it fits snug into the hose. http://us1.webpublications.com.au/st...3/2351_3lo.jpg |

Don't worry about your English, we just want to hear that "universal" sweet sound of boosting coming from a RX-7.
Happy boosting holidays. |

You don't want to get the pills mixed up. Placing the prespool pill (smaller orifice) in the wastegate line will increase your boost, perhaps overboosting your engine.
