Hi All,
Can anyone shed light on the following?
My boost pattern is 10-7-10(7) ie after the transition it recovers to 10psi momentarily then drops to 7psi and holds to redline.
I have all new solenoids and have removed the cat but no difference.
Any ideas?

I had a very similar problem that I only noticed when I fitted a boost gauge (doh). On mine, two solenoids (turbo pre-control and wastegate) had been swapped over. They are the two next to each other under the plastic pressure tank at the front of the engine. Apparently this is a common problem as some workshop manuals describe them the wrong way round - one has a white dot on it and should be on the right (looking at the car from the front), but the manual said the other way round.
See here (http://www.autosportracetech.com/RX-7/TurboTroubleshooting.htm) for some good turbo boost issue stuff. See "Other stuff" on this page about 2/3 the way down.
Hope this helps.

Angus has recently had a new solenoid rack fitted by WGT so it should be fine.
Angus, my car is going into "the-garage" on the 24th. When I called marc he told me he has had 3 cars recently with the same problem. He thinks it is something else. I\'ll let you know how I get on in the next few weeks.
