after throwing on the turbo kit, i've noticed some oil consumption at regular fillups at the gas station...
its a y8 with about 140k km's.

how is it holding up for ur engine?

thx for the input

i burn about 2 quarts per oil change 3000 miles. my motor actually burned more oil before i put the turbo on. i also use lucas heavy duty oil stabilizer cause its thick as hell, keeps me from buring even more oil

banel

that aint bad i guess, so i take it this is normal for turbod car?

Ravage70

its normal for a high mileage engine and for a forged piston engine to burn more than normal when cold

Zero. Happy motor... knock on wood. Even with several months of Dry ZEX and now nearly a year under 8-9 lbs of boost.

I use 15w30 Castrol GTX... the regular ----.

In any case... rering-ing a motor isn't bad.

ever since i put 87 in my car and blew the ring lands i've been burning over a liter per fill up.
