Default smoking because of my resistor box ??



ok, my car is smoking white smoke,

and a friend of mine said that it maybe because of my resistor box which i may have connected wrong !

is that possible ? iam using an vafc with 450cc injectors as management ...

runing rich would cause a blue smoke rite ?

iam confused

another thing if you guys could help me ....

i connected my 4 black wires to 4 yellow wires , but iam left with one red wire from the resistor box
where the hell should i connect that ?

i read that if i connect that red wire to any one of the yellow wires it should do the job , is that true ?

nevermind i cant read.

there is 8 YELLOW/BLACK wires
4 go to and 4 come from the ECU
4 BLACK wires go to the 4injector wires(going to the injectors)and the red one goes to the other 4injector wires(going to the ECU)

ok , if its my head gasket , shouldnt my coolent levels drop ? as it doesnt .
and shouldnt i have some sort of bubbling if i open my engine cap ?

ive got oil in my intercooler pipes, bov, exhasut and on the tip of the turbo intake.

iam really really confused if its my turbo or head gasket if someone can honestly tell me
ill go do it 1st thing !!!

my car only smokes under boost.
ive got a restrictor , my oil return line is goos aswell,
and no ive not done a compression test yet , but wot do u think it is

sounds llike your turbo seals are fucked! thats a whole lot better then blow by though. does your car run ok? if so why would you think it would be an injector. and your car should be blowing blue smoke

yeh that true , if it was the injectors it wouldve been blue ,

but theres no shaft play with my turbo , it looks really good, could i still blow
my turbo seals with out fuking up my shaft ?

and which seals r u talking about ? the piston seals or the compressor ?
basiclly your saying i need a new turbo right ! hahah
