Default 91 talon 16psi (boost/smoke)

91 Talon tsi. smoking bad under boost. Car seem's to be running fine, no smoke at idle or outta boost. As soon as it start's building boost it smoke's really bad. Smoke looks white but all i can smell is oil. turbo seal's bad?? headgasket? the car hasent seem to lost any power either

Sounds like oil seals own you. Do a leak down test to make sure the motor is good.

pull the turbo and check the turbine housing.

i had a talon and the 14b cracked enough to allow oil into the exhaust.

Oil in the piping doent mean the seals could be bad, get a catch can and it should keep most the oil out of your chargepipes. I'm sure that old *** turbo is probably beat tho

i would check the turbo shaft on it. cause my buddy had the same proplem and his turbo went out about a week later. and if you do get a new turbo i would do a small 16g they are great on a stock motor on the dsm's.

i love how every *** on earth with a dsm there first mod before anything else is a $7 boost controller they crank the ---- out of. on a turbo that is already way to small for the car in the first place. then they wonder "why aint it running right"?

Not to mention they sackride the 16g like a bunch of retarded cult members and do no scheduled maintenance before turning up the boost to 20psi on a 15+ year old turbo car with all stock components. I used to love my DSM's but now every kid with $1500 can get a 1G and desecrate DSM owner's reputations even further. Anyone want to buy a pair of turbo 2G's?
