smoking
I have a 94 Integra LS w/ drag kit, 160,000 mi, safc hack, 440s, 255 lph. Just today I noticed that smoke is pouring out from the breather filter. It smells clean, and I am wondering why this is happening, help! Also, I am blowing alot of what seems to be alot of blue smoke out the exhaust, especially when I hit full boost and shift it puffs a cloud the stays behind in the air. Put it this way, I have used about a full quart of oil in a week, granted I have done alot of full boost runs. I am assuming there is a large amount of blow by on the pistons. Anyone experience this especially the smoke coming out of the breather filter(scaring me)

Re: smoking (dustin)
Thanks captain obvious, I am looking for a solution to the breather filter smoking mainly, not a wise *** remark. I Know I have to rebuild it, I am just running it till it blows up or till winter, The motor is cheap anyways!/ probably go with a b20 built, more torque baby!

The solution is new rings and possibly pistons.

Re: smoking (vtecsiqt)
I might suspect the valve seals.
Seems you are burning a LOT of oil, and because it is getting into the valve cover that makes me suspect the valve seals.
Good luck, and be careful.

I would do a leakdown with the valvecover off to get a better idea of where the leakage is coming from. I heard mine coming from the oil return holes in the head, but still with good compression--so its definetly an oil ring.
...that's where I'm going with mine too

Re: smoking (93LSivic)
Doubt it. I was smoking pretty bad and figured I owuld replace the valve seals. Well, that wasnt the problem. I figure one of the oil rings took a ****.
