AB Help Please

Hey guys, well first of all my clutch has no pressure, a crack in the line, how do i take out that line and what would be the best way of fixing it, a steal braided line?

And also my first turbo does not seem to be working i only feel boost from my second turbo at 5000 rpm, i am not sure where to start, do i get a blow off valve? is it a vaccum hose, or do i need to replace it?

thanks guys

Just disconnect both ends of the line with a flare nut wrench (use some penetrating oil) and then install the new line. Any auto parts store should have a replacement, and any of the vendors will sell a braided stainless line (my preference).

I would take it to Adam at rx7 specialists in Calgary, he'll be able to set you up. He's help me out a lot over the past couple of years.

Lines come off easy enough with a line wrench... Just use a good quality line wrench like snap on or whatever, cheap line wrenches tend to round the nut.
