turbo question

ok required excuse for asking a question first:
ok I know i've waited a very long time to ask this question.. mostly because i waited a long time to really open up my car. now it's in winter storage but i have just been thinking about this. i could explain how i tried to search and failed to find an answer to such a simple and stupid question, but i'll get to the question now..

ok real question:
am i supposed to FEEL the 2nd turbo kick in like the 1st? I never feel any difference, or any second kick in the ***.. I get kind of disappointed, should i be feeling something there?

You should feel a BIG kick in the pants when the turbos transition. At least, you should when they are working properly. If you don't, then you probably have a problem.

I know I dont have my 2nd kick in the ***. I am looking forward to it after my problem is fixed. I thought the 7 was fast without it! I can't wait till I can feel the rush of the 2nd turbo.

do you have a boost guage? If not, you need to get one to check your boost patterns.

I have one, unfortunately i do not know how to put it in and the roads are way too icy to drive it out to Monroe, MI to have chris sanders (local rx7 guru) do it for me.
