secondary air pump removel question
hello iam new to rx7 club i just go a 89 fc n/a vert and i want to remove the secondary air pump (has no cat and a cone air filter) the vacuum line goes to the air pump then it goes in to the air control valve then to the cat
so if i remove the air pump is it ok the have the vacuum leak at the air control valve or can i remove the acv all together thanks jake |
Do not remove the air pump on an S5 NA. The air pump supplies pressure for the aux. port (6PI) and VDI actuators. Together these systems are responsible for about 40HP.
This page has info (from the FSMs) on the aux. port system for both S4s and S5s. The VDI actuator is controlled similarly. The ECU energizes a solenoid, which directs air pressure to the actuator. http://mazdarx7.iougs.com/intakeair.shtml |

can i remove the hose from the back of i acv that goes to the cat since i have no cat its kind of just hanging there and it has full exhast and header street port full suspension sway bars strut tower bars omp is disabled but still on the car should i get block off plates for omp and i have to use premix in the gas
|
you would have to your ECU chipped from www.pocketlogger.com to remove the OMP
|
thanks that helped a lot

You can remove the hose to the split air pipe (from the ACV). Just don't remove the ACV itself; it has a nipple on it that directs air from the pump to the 6PI/VDI actuators.
Without a chipped ECU, removing the OMP puts the engine into limp mode. |
