eversince i installed my turbo my car smells like gas!!??
 
ok eversince i installed my turbo ive been smelling gas often!!!!
i checked the fuel pump and its not leaking!
car is not tuned and is running rich.
it doesnt have a full exhaust the DP cuts off right under the turbo so im guessing that all the smell the DP is dumbing is what im smelling!??

what can it be???
no fuel injectors leak..no fuel pump leak .....and not a gas tank leak either???? what can it be?

yeah dude because my mileage is doing good when i stay off the boost.
and also do you think my ---- isnt blowing off if my WG spring is too small.!???n its showing only 2lbs of boost on the gauge so im guessing that would be it . my buddy told me that was the problem cause he had the same problem

Not true.

But your running two pounds? And you think your BOV is important? You dont even need one with that.

Exactly how can you run only 2psi? Do they even make springs that lite? Must have purchased that item at -----parts.com

Seriously man... why? ???

Sounds like you shouldn't even have a turbo on your vehicle. Exactly how long is your DP? And oh yeah thats going to be where the smell is coming from. If its too short I hope you like warped valves :l

how is your pcv setup???? If you put your heater on recycle and roll up your windows do you get the smell then???? Is it all the time or just when you are in boost?

Pinch off your stock return fuel line. Then, you'll be able to crank up the boost and smell all the fuel you want. :S

Maybe you connected your oil feed into your fuel system on accident. Its a common problem, everybody does it.

Mine smells like gas.

It's called unburnt fuel comming out of your exhaust. Deal with it or run a full exhaust and a cat. Anything less than 3' of downpipe is asking for trouble down the line. I ran a foot and a half. That probably caused my turbo to crack. ---- got hot QUICK.
