Hello everyone,

Please take ur time out to read my problem,

Ill try not to write too much of an essay to explain my issue,

Firstly ive just finished building my civic turbo, my first one ever, my profession of not being a mechanic has meant its taking a very long time, actually over a year now to complete the build, slowly but surly with hours and hours of reading and months of labour!! and loads of money!!!

However today was meant to be the big day, however ive come across an issue which has left be bewildered to say the least and extremely upset!!


So its a built b16 Turbo - cp pistons and rings
Ram Horn manifold, T3/4 TUrbo, recently rebuilt. oil cooled.
750 injec, s300.
SS 3 inch dp + Exhaust

So i fired her up today, morning very little smoke let her idle for 20minutes, did all the checks no leaks etc.

Couple of hours later after cleaning up few cosmetics fired her up again, this time shes smoking on idle and when reving smoking a little more, by no means it was clouds of smoke, however easily noticeable white smoke.

Didnt think much of it as previously before i rebuilt her i had blown my turbo so i assumed it was oil in the exhaust.

Anyway so i took her for a drive later on today, and it started smoke more, started puffing out clouds of smoke when i RELEASed the accelerator. Alsoi smoking on idle quite bad

I still figured this is because of the oil in the exhaust from before.

So ive driven her id say about 20miles, what ive realized is, when on a constant speed/rpm the CAR DOESNT smoke, however if i accelerate hard, whether to 4K RPM or 5K or 6K and release the accelerator it PUFFs out smoke. quite a big puff.

After the long drive, even when i came to a STAND still the car seems to be QUITE SMokey Too!!

So ive parked her up, let her cool down, decided id disconnect my DOWNPIPE and see what happens.

So NOW with the DP disconnected the car doesnt smoke at all, i Held the RPM at 3/4K no smoke what so ever , however when i accelerate hard there is again a puff of smoke, doesnt seem as much as before but certainly a puff.

I also have a couple of breather on my Rocker Cover which are open, they also seem to smoke slightly when the car is revved and warmed up.


I should also mention i swiped the tip of the exhaust and it seems to be quite oily still.

Now i dont know what this is pointing too.. and really dont know what steps to take,id appreciate any input!!!

Muchos Gracias!!

rings clocked? and gapped correctly? machined?

i was told that smoking on decceleration was a ring problems
