Re: Is my turbo bad
yea you have to hold the throttle wide open when you crank. But thats not gonna get you another 60psi. My stock z6 was 185.

I say run it into the ground. Smoking problems from turbo include 1. Blowby (get a cathcan) 2. Not enough gravity for oil drain (get more gravity) 3. Too big of an oil feed (run a restrictor or a 3AN line) 4. Turbo seals, smokes on decel and idle (rebuild or get a new one) off the top of my head those are the most common problems, if its not the turbo then I say get a catchcan and then run it into the ground.
