Arrow What Should i set my boost at????

I have a 1993 rx7 with twin turbo Bnrs and a apexi twin chamber blow off valve with a m2 cold air intake and a m2 intercooler with greedy piping. Also lager injectors and a bigger fuel pump I have a greedy boost controller and the power fc thing but I was wondering what should I have my boost set at and how do I change it or if I should have a pro do it………..also I live in foredecks burg Va and I need to know if there anywhere around me there a place that works on rx7s.

i wouldnt touch anything...if i were you. You dont seem to know too much about any of the "toys" you have on the car. Hopefully u have a boost gauge, if you are seeing 10 psi, leave it at that untill a professional can look at the car and properly adjust and tune.

talk to chuck westbrook or someone who could guide you with the tuning if you cant take it to a professional tuner.

Ugly *** rims or if i can call them Hot Wheels.

Ugly *** engine bay.

You might get some jealous people on the interior red is rare.

Search for Gotham Racing and look when Steve is having a tuning session near you and go see him ASAP!

The engine bay isnt bad. Just hid some of the vacuum hoses that are going over the top. Get some polished hardpipes from ebay or something and you be lookin fly. Oh ya and take whatever red stuff is on the UIM off

Look at his opening to this thread. It says BNR's. Dude, if you get your car properly tuned you will be flying. A UIM is upper intake manifold. Look at the stickies at the top of this 3rd gen section for alot of easy newbie questions like that. Im not picking on you or nething.

Punctuation and spelling...THAT'S why i remember you...

https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/stage-3-r-d-turbos-502812/

Just don't fly into a ditch. But if you do i'll take dibs on the BNR's for when you part out the car.

Oh, and the only place i know of that is even somewhat close would be Peter Farrell Supercars @ http://www.pfsupercars.com My car was a PFS car as is the rebuilt engine. I'm sure it's still a ways away, but they specialize in FDs so it might be worth the drive.

Be careful. It sounds like youve got a head on your shoulders. Youll score e-points by typing your posts like an english paper. Its a paint in the butt but not being hassled is worth it. Frankly we cant help you much with your tune and boost. Youre gonna have to go get it retuned for a boost you choose(dont go nuts with that 15 is a good start). Peter Farrel supercars is in Manassas(sp?) and if they cant help no one can. Rotorsports is in kanapolis, NC. Theyre good guys and they rebuilt my motor. There should be some people in Richmond. Delta V motorsports is rotary specific I believe. Go to the local forum and you will get better help. Theyre down at the bottom near the lounge and stuff and the guys in the local forums are pretty die-hard. I used to live in south-richmond so I've got Va love for you.
