Re: HELP. Turbo leak!

Re: HELP. Turbo leak!

Good idea. It should be acting like a rotary with blown seals pretty soon. Let me contact Tom. One of those blocks is like 6-7 gees. I will get one reserved for you today.

Edit: just read that you have a new engine. Looks like something is not so great with that nwe engine if you have a ton of white smoke blowby coming out the breather

Highly doubting this one, brand new OEM rings only 1k on the motor and I have not yet put a fuel pump so my motor has not seen any major boost. Its only seen about 2-3 psi.

Just keep reving it. It may just clear it self out.

Re: HELP. Turbo leak!

Who built this engine, did they know anything about assembling engines? Or did you buy it 'freshly rebuilt'?

Re: HELP. Turbo leak!

b20's are only good for 5psi max. Your boost gauge at certain altitudes measures pressure incorrectly sometimes.

no Im making less then 2-3 psi i have leaks all over the place and ---- and by the shitty way it pulls i can easily tell its not over 3 psi. it CANT be the rings.

Ton of blowby, ton of oil consumption. hmmm?

I'd bet a compression and leakdown test will make someone frown
