oil leaking from valve cover
i got a 5th gen turbo running 10psi on stock internals. cranked it up from 6 to ten for 2 weeks now, just notice that smoke is comin out if my hood. looks like oit and smoke is gucshing out of the breather filter on the valve cover. question is, are my rings shot or can i just plug that up andjust to boost down a bit.
i would say turn down the boost. you are probably running really hot from cranking up the boost, which is causing fluids to evaporate. what color is the smoke by the way, and does it have a smell? if its white smoke, you may be leaking coolant into your motor from a blown head gasket. try posting in the turbo forum, they might know more about boosted motors than us.
