installed the turbo and tons of smoke when i boost, help please
i haven't reved past 5.5K yet, but when i boost i have a **** load of smoke coming out of the exhaust
it's not my oil cause i just checked it and it's still right at the top and check the intake piping and it's clean
for fuel i have the intake pump, FMU and stock (00 civic si) injectors
is there anyway to fix this without going to a dyno or tuner?

what color smoke?
prolly a blown seal even If it isn't in your charge pipe. I had the same problem and it was a seal(turbine side).
good luck

i wouldn't recomend driving it like that,If at all possible borrow somebody elses car.You run the chance of destroying your engine,gas and oil don't mix well.You will have really shitty gas mileage.not to mention the extra friction caused by thinned out oil
