hey,
i just got a 93 rx7 it has a apexi boost controler apexi blow off valve the other owner did somethng to the turbos to make it open at the same time, but when he did it the messed up a lot of things. i have some questions that i thought you guys could help me with. whats the idel suppost to be at? how come when i turn on the ac and i come to a stop light my car dies out? and what is the make boost i can run? also what are some cheap ways to go faster? i ran a 13.6 no braking loss and i wah to go faster. if someone could help me that would be great. thanks

 

You should probably start out with the FAQ.

 

ya i tried but it says there having some kind of tech. diff.

 

There seems to have been a slight problem with the RX-7 Owners Club database.

Yeah just keep trying the server. Sometimes they get can get bogged down a little and spit back a error message because of timeouts to the database.

I'm not a admin to this site or anything. I just have some experience with this stuff.

 

Idle on a stock car is 850rpm. Your car shouldn't die with the AC on. How much boost you can run depends on a lot of things.

You need to start by compression testing the motor. Once you're sure you have decent compression (and the motor isn't dying), do the reliability mods. Once you've done those, THEN you can start looking at getting faster.

Oh, and don't jack the boost too high. If you lean that motor out, you can say goodbye to your apex seals.

yea but it's a dry heat...

 

thanks

 

tried the faq again it dont work

 

You just hafta keep trying, trust us, it happens.

 

I've noticed the forum is down every day from around 6:10 to 6:20 EST.

As for go-fast, I think you need to figure out what's wrong first. Download the factory service manual in the second sticky thread. Once of the basic maintenance items is the fuel filter, I think you should change that right away.

The fact that you're asking for cheap ways to go faster suggests you did absolutely no research about this car. While it's no ferrari, it's far from simple and cheap to modify an FD without destroying it.
