Title: water leaking
Post by: davpowell on June 11, 2006, 09:05:03 PM
when i rev the engine not high to about 4000 water is shooting out the bottom of the engine like a sprinkler.
well cant actually see exactly wher but under the car, and steam is coming up in between the turbo sort of area but only when reving.
got under the car just now but couldn see anywher it was coming from any ideas?

also next question just brought this intercooler from lrp http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RX7-SMIC-SUPE...1QQcmdZViewItem
and am just wondering if i will need to buy a new ecu remapped etc over than this mod the car is completely standard.
 any help would be good  cheers

the turbos have a feed in and feed out that are metal and rust over time had the same problem with mine you cant see them unless you take turbo covering off

Single turbos should have a coolant feed too!
