hey guys just wanted to let all of you know that im selling off some parts i don't need. i have a thread showing what Ive got https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...9#post10550119 since most of you guys are local we can forgo the shipping and just meet locally if you need something
Anyone really good at checking for boost leaks or exhaust leaks lol my car is boosting slow and not hitting where it should.
Also it boosts to .5 bar really quick but after that it's a real struggle to get it to go up. And it seems louder than normal...any help would be awesome from the guys in the area though

I was thinking wastegate or exhaust manifold gasket...however my couplers around the edges on a couple of them have had a build up of residue and dirt...SO im thinking it may be leaking there even though I have them pretty tight. But I will do some checking around tonight when the engine is cool and see what I can find. But I was just hoping to find someone with more experience with checking for those types of problems. 2 heads are usually better than 1 lol

are you running an apexi wastegate? I ran one of those back in the day and that pos failed on me on the drag strip. I haven't ran anything but tial ever since. I don't know many ppl using those anymore
Yea it's the crappy Apexi racing wastegate...but im hoping it's the solenoid valve b/c it's a MUCH cheaper fix. Even if it is the wastegate I wanted to get a replacement that would be a direct bolt-on. Not sure if TiAL makes one.
unfortunately tial is not going to be a direct replacement, from what I can remember the apexi has three or four bolt and the tials are v-banded which are more efficient and easier to change/mount
Well if it's not the solenoid valve I will go with tial regardless. Just gotta figure out which is bad first. Oh but I see the F46 is a bolt on for tial...not sure if it will work lol but im hoping so
