From what I seen, it wasn't smoking bad at all. I think Steve is just being a bit paranoid about it because he doesn't want to rip anybody off by selling it as a "perfect" motor when it "might" have a problem. From what I seen it could have been the turbo smoking , or maybe even running rich from the gay ass fuel management he was using(AFC). :-\

Dr Boost was there. It only smoked a little while sitting idle. When driving it didn't smoke at all. It COULD have been the turbo, but I'm not one to bank on that to tell you it's perfect. I'd rather say "this or this" COULD be wrong and sleep well at night.

The motor doesn't have a wiring harness, but it has all sensors, intake manifold/throttle body/, valve cover, obd0 distributor, wires. Oil pan is tapped. Uh, what more is there?

what rings did you use in it?? If you used low tension rings (which are meant for boost) it would smoke at an idle which is perfectly fine

I used the je rings that was listed on the srp piston site as the turbo pistons indicate. The smoking didn't occur for the first 3k miles, so I doubt it was normal, I just don't know what it was.
