ok i Started my car up again to see if there would be blue smoke coming out of the exhaust and sure thing there was a little continoius spurts of blue smoke coming out, I have checked the oil dip stick and it still reads at the F so I know that the engine oil isnt being burned, I also notice a chirping sound coming from the engine bay when the car is ideling, and it shakes a little at idle sort of sounds like the car is trying to back fire a little not consistently but it happens when the car is ideling, yet my rpm gauge shows the idle to be at 1000rpm when ideling and it doesn'ty fluctuate to show that the car is ideling rough!!! so whats causing these symptoms of mine? I have a new engine with 43000 K on it with new turbos. The turbos are producing really good power, I am seeing 15 pounds of boost spikes!!! but It has happend twice, I know I should get a boost controller but I have decided to put on the main cat to prevent these kind of spikes. Any diagnoses to what could be causing the car to blow out blue smoke when ideling? and the chirping sound coming around the Pulley area? Oh yeah I also notice that the exhaust pressure from the back was coming out like it was spitting, there wasnt continious exhaust air coming out but in spurts.

Whats your mods?

Got a manual?

www.scuderiaciriani.com/rx7/shop_manual.html

If its stock, not streetported, set your idle to factory 1k is not factory. Once you have done that see how smooth your idle is and if you get any smoke. Check your plugs? they tell you how the car is running. If the engine still idles rough, you have to check deeper like compression testing. If it smooths out it could be your metering pump is injecting too much or your turbos have an oil leak into the exhaust side.

That should be enough to get you started. LOL
