a few days ago i blew a gasket on my wast-gate. i replaced the gasket and the car ran super well. when i was driving it i noticed a lot of white smoke coming out of my exhaust and engine. i pulled over and towed my car home. i'm getting white smoke coming out of my catch can.

oh, btw, i think i might have over filled my car w/ oil

any help?

 

Did you boost higher than 5psi when the wastegate gasket blew??

 

i don't think so. i have my spring set at 5 psi.

 

how do u have the catch can setup?

 

the catchcan is connected to the pvc outlet; the left nipple on a h22

 

white smoke = coolant

do a leakdown test.

 

it could be that. he could also have alot of crankcase pressure do to the fact hes doesnt have a proper CC setup.

 

i also just turboed my 93si lude similar problem had to have mine towed to blew head gasket to detonation nice hole going down side of #4 piston. tore down replaced #4 ran fine no detonation now it started missing/smokeing out of exhaust and from the breather tube on the valve cover backfireing/loping rpm and also stalling at times #1/90psi #2/180psi #3/90psi #4/140 al little feedback

 

You guys need to read and learn about cars before you stick a 'turbo kit' on your stock engine.

 

man i was in u alls position like 2 years ago- the things i would have done now if i only would have known, do your research man itll pay off in the long run

 

how much is 'too much extra oil'?

 

sure, send me the book. i'll be more then glad to read it.

 

what book?

 

i overfilled the oil, and it did that, smoking. bad turbo seal can cause it to smoke too.

I have H23 stock internals with T3 turbo boosting 9lbs, no problems here, i'm running alil rich. been running the car for a year now, daily driven. :-)
