Ports Not Opening

Pretty self explanitory, got a misfire taken care of today and as i reved it a bit in the streets it " farted " on me. me and my mechanic check for air leaks, none present. after we check and check and check we come to a conclusion, either my 6 ports arent opening or my secondary fuel injectors arent kicking in. * notes * this only occurs if either i get on the gas pedal hard at any time during my driving and i just swapped the entire stock exhaust w/ a straight pipe

Year and model?

Basic aux port testing: http://www.aaroncake.net/rx-7/6porttest.htm

It's rare for secondary injectors to just not work.

Grounding issues perhaps? http://www.aaroncake.net/rx-7/grounding.htm

you need back pressure from your exhaust, on your old stock exhaust there should be a line running back up to your lower intake manifold if im not mistakin
