smoking
i just installed my turbo and when i come to an idle and sit for a second smoke will rool out from the hood. when i take off the hood the smoke is coming from the turbo. i was wondering if it could be the coolant lines are backwards? i didn't try to find out which ones went where. their seems to be a little bit of oil on the intake housing but not enough to make it smoke like that. anyone have any thoughts?

Re:smoking
Give it a little time to dry the oil. It might just be the oil you said was on it.

Re:smoking
well i didn't exactly get the intake housing snug after rotating it. i hope that is all it is. i need to tighten a couple more bolts i couldn't get too today also. but ya'll don't think it is the coolant lines?

Re:smoking
I doubt the coolant lines would be causing smoke. Maybe if they were spraying coolant on the hot turbo. Tighten up the turbo and se what happens.

Re:smoking
well, the outlet on the turbo points down but because it hangs so low the return line goes up into the oil pan. to make it go down i would have had to drill into the sump and then it would have been straight across.
