Maybe Idle Problem?
Maybe Idle Problem?
Here are the mods done to the car.
3 Inch Downpipe
Pettit Exhaust
AST By-Pass
Hi-Flow Cat
New Vacuum Lines
Now the car idles at about 1000 - 1100 RPM after it does its Accelerated Start-up.
Now I heard it should even go lower then that? Should I expect it too?
Its a 93 by the way.
Also the car runs pretty hott. I was gonna replace the OEM Air Intake with Aftermarkets and a new Radiator but wanted to get some suggestions is this is the right course of action. I might also get a new IC while I am replacing the Rad.

I think you should do your Intake, Radiator and intercooler .. all are good and help your car breathe ... I like the RX7 store but you can check around with rx7.com , srmotorsports, m2, there are a bunch ...
I was running really hot for a while .. check your oil cooler you can see it from the front bumper .. mine was all smashed flat .. I replaced it and cooled my car down pretty good .. if it looks bad replace it or take a flat head screwdriver to it and try to open the fins back up or go to dual oil coolers.
Just a thought

1000-1000rpm idle isnt bad @ all for ur car. IMO, id just drive it like that, but if you want the "correct" 850 idle ( i think thats what stock is ) the easiest fix is the little screw on the front of the TB. back that out a few turns and it should bring it down.
