smoking when not underload
My car very lightly smokes when it is not under load. I recently did a compression test and all the cylinders were good. When im lightly accelerating the smoke goes away. It is a very small amount of smoke. I was totally unaware of it until my brother followed behind me today. Does this sound like symptoms of a turbo seal leak.
Ohh, my wideband reads 14 in the regions where it smokes btw.
I have a B16a stock
SC34 turbo
7 lbs of boost

could be turbo seals. Check your intercooler piping for oil. If there is then it is probably a cold side seal. Also check the down pipe for oil residue. Take a look at your plugs. If they do not have signs of oil on them, then the oil is probably being burned in the exhuast somewhere. Valve stems seals and/or valve guides? How many miles on the stock engine and how many with boost?
