New car, few questions with issues.

[cdnmmaguy]

I just bought a 10AE and I got a good deal on it, and theres a few things that need to be addressed.
First off, the throttle is sticking, it wont drop down to an idle and raises while im driving.
Second, I believe its running REALLY rich, it backfires ALOT lol
Third, the car is modded quite a bit, and last night I was hitting almost 14-15psi consistantly, today, just 7.

Pretty much all these problems just started within the last 12hrs or so, I bought the car yesterday out of town and drove it home with zero problems.
Im not sure if this makes a difference, but theres a leak in the exhaust manifold gasket and it sounds like a tractor haha

If you guys could help a newbie out, id appreciate it, or at least point me in the right direction, ive booked it into a shop to get the other minor problems fixed, but thats not for 2 weeks :cry:

Thanks

This is what I was told, and no I dont believe its an aftermarket manifold.

Apparently with these mods it made 253rwhp 238rwtq on a mustang dyno.

On a stock turbo?

[black rocket]

First, what you should do is to replace all the fluids so you know it's fresh and protective.

ck your turbo...

[cdnmmaguy]

IMO the turbo looks aftermarket, but that doesnt mean much lol
Im used to hondas and smaller applications haha

Ill grab a pic? maybe you can tell.

Im going to have all the fluids replaced this week, and I believe they're going to compression test it at the shop when it goes in, if its even borderline im going to rebuild this I think, im actually debating just doing it and starting fresh. Opinions?

[black rocket]

OK

[black rocket]

Yeah, especially if it was modded. If it was modded...it was driven hard so, make sure you ck everything. Good that you are getting a compression test done.

It kinda looks like the stock turbo 2 turbo, but I'm also a newbie to the FC rx7. The wire that is unplugged is the oxygen sensor, and there should be a connector to plug it into someplace on that side of the engine.

[black rocket]

The connector from O2 sensor should be attached to Port Air Solenoid Valve.
