Exhaust and Turbo Problems
Car:
93 R1 with downpipe, intake filter
61k original miles (scary but its really really strong)
Problem 1:
Well I'm following the turbo problem thread very closely so I understand if nobody wants to answer it here.
But here is the problem: Getting 12-8-3 Sometimes 12-3-3.
Checked some hoses and replaced one with a huge hole in it. Still not feeling the secondaries. I have not checked the secondary turbo yet. I will do this tomorrow.
What are possible problems and solutions?
Ok Problem 2:
My engine seems very hot. I mean hotter than I think it should be. My downpipe after a mild run will glow orange and red. I also have a "put put " noise from the exhaust. Possible clogged cats?
I'm sorry if these questions have been answered.
Show me where..I really want my 7 to run great

If your DP is getting that hot, it could be a clogged cat.
Boost problems could be any number of things. If you found one bad hose, there are probably others. Bad hoses are a constant source of boost problems. I would start by checking the hoses for wear and bad connections. Perhaps it time for the hose job on your car.
