hey guys. well my cousin has 1987 rx-7 turbo 2 that he is selling. it has 90,000 miles on it but i think he said somethin about it being rebuilt but i am not sure. heres the catch tho, the turbo does not spool past 3500 rpm. he tells me all it needs is new secondary injectors but i am kinda skeptical. does anyone know if it would be wise for me to dump 3000 grand for this car or if i should keep lookin for other rx-7's? well thanks for the help guys, i really appreciate it.

He either has an exhaust leak between the motor, a bad turbo or the turbo or low compression. Low compression = rebuild... So have a compression test done then offer him $2k.

do think its that serious? is there any possibilty its the injectors?

yeah, it runs really good but the turbo totally drops off at 3500 rpm and doesnt spool after that.
|
it still runs there just isnt any boost.

his other theory was that the cats were clogged and making the engine not able to create enough boost.
