How Much Power You Think This Adds
Hi i have a Cat Back with Hi Flow Cat Stock Mid Pipe and Apexi Twin Air Intake with Twin Filters and a GReady intake from intercooler to intake. and i got a proformence chip in the ECU. this all came with it whan i just bought it but havent even driven it yet, need to replace rear QUARTER PANNEL well cant beat it for the price. it runs great has about 18-20 vacuum at idle and makes about 7-9 psi reving in nutrel. thanxs

Seriously, that is A LOT of boost in neutral and also a lot of vacuum at idle unless you have it set at 1200RPM.

shawnhpv72, not sure what you're asking, you've listed a bunch of mods. Which one are you referring to?

i go WOT to 7k and it hits about 7psi on average. i was just wanting to know what kinda power you think the car will make.
ya i know its alot of boost in nutrel im not sure y its so hi. i read that it should be around 4 psi but its alot higher then that. its a brand new boost gauge. just installed yesterday. im just trying to get a feel for the car i havent driven a rex before.

"theres no way to make that much boost in neutral unless that cat is clogged"
im not sure but if it was clogged would't less flow mean less flow thru the turbos? i have no idea on that subject. and how hard would it be to clogg a hi-flow cat. the cat and catback are prety new thanx

if the cats clogged it would create more back pressure which would allow the turbos to spool in netural easier, but you shound never rev the motor in neutral high enough to boost, thats how bearings get spun

OR OR OR if your knock sensor is missing or you have knock...
or if your ignition timing is unrealistically retarded....does your exhaust manifold glow at idle?
the knock sensor thing would cause the retarded ignition thing.
i had that happen to me once on an SR motor. the problem came down to ignition timing, because the knock sensor was bad.
i could create 7 or 8 lbs of boost by 4k rpms at idle....it was crazy.

though i could be off base on this considering we are talking about a rotary...and they have little to do with SRs. thats just my personal experience with building boost at idle

hah i never even tried, but when i rev it to 4 or so to get the BOV to release at a light or something its not anywhere near building boost level
