I just killed my turbo, in my quest to stop the exhaust smoking I found a valve to turn oil pressure to turbo down, turn it down too low, drove for a few, engine drags, at spool time 3500rpm stop adjust fuel enrichment nothing changes, so I pulled the filter off the turbo, it does not spins anymore! even with a screwdriver! so no more boost till I get the other turbo! just a big restriction in my intake/exhaust.

 

I DID THE SAMEW THING TO MY FIRST IHI

 

sucks dude!

 

hey man, thanks for the advice on what NOT to do...really

 

someone REALLY needs to show the proper way to add an oil restrictor to the system or say whether or not you really need one and make it a STICKY!!! or just add it to the FAQ.

 

You should just kill yourself.....Bitch. J/k I think I remember the post about somebody having problems with a smokey exhuast and was going to install an oil resister. You ever get that oil pressure gauge? Could have helped

 

OK NOW! I did get a valve that turns it down, but what happen is that it has two outlets where I could split the pressure in half, but after setting it like that Iclean the engine, and accidentally turn it off did not know, did not add a guage, will do next time, drove for 2 minutes, sqeek, squeek, no more boost.
