is there anyway to damage stock injectors with say 125 psi of fuel pressure.I posted about a d16 turbo install.car idles fine but when I rev a little a cloud of smoke comes out and smells bad of gas.when I installed the turbo I put on a adj.fuel regulator and didnt check the setting and when I switch the car on I checked the regulator and it was reading 125psi(walbor pump255)with the car smoking real bad I mean real bad I was wondering if more fuel was going through the injector due to damage and flooding.I pulled the plugs and where **** black.I even turned the pressure down to 20psi on afpr still it smokes bad.
this is my car set up:
255 walbor
stock injectors (i think 240s)
running uberdata but put skunk2 chip back in.idles without smoke until I rev slightly then Im covered
adjustable fpr
greddy turbo kit tdo4w/IC
A/F gauge
boost gauge (reading 20psi vacuum at idle)
any helppppp pleaseeee.

sounds like you have a conglomeration of ****
do you have a stock ECU to try?
does it blow black smoke any time you rev it-does it do it even when free revving it sitting still or only when driving?does it do it under vacuum too,or just boost?
i don't know if 125psi of fuel pressure would permanently damage the injectors or not-i've seen people running up to and over 10psi of boost with 12:1 FMUs with no problems,and they're going over that amount of fuel pressure.
do you have a stock regulator to try?

HAVE NOT TAKING OFF THE RAMPS YET.HAVE NOT DROVE IT.JUST PUT EVERYTHING ON AND FIRED IT UP sorry for the caps .blows smoke a little at idle then i rev it and it smokes real bad.could it be the timing.hasnt ran 10 minutes since i put all the stuff on.the smoke when i rev it is blueish white and smells bad of gas.motor has 28k miles on it.help me man.the car ran fine until bolting all the **** on.btw its a 92 civic si

rob...

is your turbo used? if so that's probably where your smoke is coming from.

spotteddawg

thing is i unhooked the pipe from the throttlebody so it pull in air not via turbo and still smokes.

spotteddawg

could the timing caused the problem maybe jump a tooth.idles fine though.

rob...

yes the oil is leaking from the turbo from the center cartridge into the exhaust. see when you rev up the car it increases oil pressure and forces oil out the turbo. i know this is a bitch but can you take of the turbo and see if it still smokes?

rob...

also your head gasket maybe bad if you can smell a fuel smell. that would be anti-freeze.

this gets my vote.fuel smoke will be black.if the car previously didn't burn oil,and is now blowing blue smoke,i'd say it's the turbo.
is it new or used?

spotteddawg

so you are saying it could be throwing oil into the motor through the exhaust valves on the head into the chamber and burning.

spotteddawg

yes the turbo is used and there is some play in the shaft.but there was no oil in the pipe coming out of the turbo exhaust side to the intercooler

rob...

that's your problem you got the tubine hooked to the inter cooler

as said above,oil can also leak over into the exhaust side.
if it has shaft play,that points even more to it being the culprit.i'd pull the turbo off and try that before going any further.

rob...

and no i'm saying that the 1300 degree exhaust gas is burning the oil leaking into your down pipe

spotteddawg

damn man iknow this will sound so noobe but that would explain the oil at the end of my down pipe.just thought it was a leak from the motor dripping down and running down the pipe.damn it man i really want to thank you guys..

spotteddawg

would you guys know where i could get a turbo that would boly up to my greddy manifold ebay? would it be a greddy exclusive turbo i know it came stock in my stealth rt/tt and talon but was wondering if they changed anything on it so it would fit only there manifold

rob...

no its a mitsubishi turbo. plenty of stuff out there
