Please use English next time!
Have you checked the cross-over tube for cracks or bad couplers?
Have you read through the troubleshooting page here:

Hey way to go ********, why don't you make fun of the guy for trying to fix his car. Most of you bash people for trashing FD's, and here he is fixing it and you're bashing him, ******...
Anyway, yeah those could cause the leak, but i would think you wouldn't see any pressure from two holes the size of cigarettes. They'd leak out ALL of the air wouldn't they?
Where exactly are the holes, on the coupler?, in the pipe?

)BTW, I have no sympathy for people who don't learn english. If I moved to another country, I would expect to have to be fluent in speaking and reading/writing the language of that country....if you don't like that sentiment, oh well....

Hey I'm in the Navy too. how about next just tell me what I did wrong intead of insulting. Yes I check the link above. I will look into it when I get a chance but I'm thinking of just taking it to the RX-7 Store and have a full check done in the car and fix that problem or may be just run them non- seq. Let's quit the name calling and just try to help each other out, that's what this forum is all about.

so now you go and call my mother a ***** in spanish? i've got an idea. why don't you go back to spain and stay there?! i'm sure rynberg, like myself, would prefer to stay here, and speak ENGLISH. if someone wants to post here and then gets mad because they can't type a legible sentence, then they deserve to get flamed.

I moved to Spain 3 years ago, and I'm fluent in the language now, but that's not to say I communicate perfectly. Thank god the Spanish people don't have your attitude, and are appreciative that some foriegners make an effort to learn.

Regardless of what a person speaks, this is a RX7 board..although it wasn't easy to read his post, it wasn't horrible for english being his second language..
anyhoo, if there is ANY holes in piping leading from the IC then it will leak most of the boost out - I had that problem but it was with the stock IC piping - didn't make any whistling noises - just slow as a dog
- putting the exoxy in there will probably help - good luck

Didn't read all the cat fighting. Lay off guys..
Anyway sounds like you do have a problem with boost leakage, the problem is that isn't your only problem. See if you have a 8-4-4 pattern that means you have a problem with the boost control system. You get 8psi on your first turbo, and 4psi on your second. If a boost leak was your only problem you'd more likely have 4psi on the 1st turbo and 8psi on the second.
Do a search on boost problems and while your at it either get the IC welded up and retapped for the bolt or figure something else out.
Good luck, don't worry about the english, I understood you

lmfao...Americans showing what you're really about...He asked for help. And you criticize him for his english not being great. Then you get MAD when he gets mad. English isn't my first language. Took me about 10 years to learn it.
Either way, I think that your boost patter isn't caused by the intercooler since your getting an 8 then a 4-4. I think it's possible that it's caused by something else other than the intercooler i.e. solenoids busted/vacuum hoses dry rotted.
