What just happened?!
 
Ok, before any of this i was pushing 10psi, so i was rearranging some vacuum lines and moved my MBC closer to the turbo. I drove it down the street, 1st gear pulled like crazy, 2nd gear pulled even more, i hit third and heard a weird noise (cant remember how it sounded like), i got to a stop sign and notice that my car was off...i tried cranking it and it wouldnt start. So i thought i most of blew the motor because MBC was probably pushing for than 10psi, (my boost gauge wasnt working either, after i rearranged the vacuum lines, so i didnt know how much boost i was pushing) so i called my brother over so he can help jump start, IT DIDNT EVEN JUMP START! i dont know whats wrong with it. One thing i notice is when my brother was trying to crank it, there was oil leaking out where you plug that pipe into the intake, i thought that small pipe suppose to suck in air, but it shoot out air and small amount of oil. Help please...whats up with my motor....

D15B7/RHB5 @ 10psi
check valves/FMU

damn, doesnt sound good. i know the "breather" is to help cool the head. oil shouldnt shoot out from there. ive heard of this happening before. what was the sound you heard? was it like a pffssh or more like a bang or crack?? if it made a wierd blowoff noise probably one of the charge pipes popped off, but you should still be able to start the car no problem. check for any defects in the block like a piston shooting threw it :-X. check the turbo oil lines to see if they didnt pop off or anything. does it even crank over or no spark at all???

is there oil leaking from the block too?...and the breather is to do just that, let the head/crankcase breathe, some oil will come out, more if you have blowby (you might have fried a piston)

and yes, it does crank, just doesnt start up, and where the intake pipe thingy plug where oil leaks out, steam is also leaking out too, well...it WAS anyways.

yea i know, CV & FMU, but it ran fine at 10psi, im guessing it was pushing a little over 10 that time but yeah....still not sure whats wrong, i took off the valve cover and was trying to look for water spots, nothing.

theres no way your car will hold together at 10 psi or more on a fmu. sounds like it already let go
