Turbo b18c1 has PLOOMS of oil coming from the exhaust. Doesn't really happen BAD until engine is at op temp. Not really specific of when it's happening either, but it IS however worse while it's building boost.

Pulled the charge pipe off, throttle body is CLEAN, no oil there. Pulled the plugs, can't tell if they look "bad" or not, they're dirty, but not as bad as I would expect if the oil was getting into the cylinders. Engine seems to run normal, compression is okay (for having 8.5:1 pistons). So is the oil JUST in the exhaust? or is it going through the motor?


Oil burnt, or not?

pull the charge pipe off the compressor and see if theres oil, if so turbo seals are shot if notdo a leak down test just cause u have good compression doesnt mean the oil rings are not shot, plugs dont look oil soaked

it could be the rings thats the same issue im having on a coworkes turbo bandit

damn, I can't remember. They're NGK's and I remember we went a heat range down for turbo. I'd have to look at the number (they're back in the car now).

I think we'll do leakdown tonight. Cross your fingers.

Im gonna vote too much crank case pressure, or a bad drain line.... and the oil is being pushed out the turbo straight into the DP

If the oils not coming from the engine theres only one other place, the turbo.
