Default JDM B18C white smoke on WOT

I have a question for everyone, why is my B18c burns too much oil then gives out white smoke on WOT ??? I already have a compression test and everything is okay.. is this normal for b18c ?? After a while though the white smoke disappears.... SHOULD I BE CONCERNED ??

Mods are header, intake, full exhaust...

Kindly please help

Thanks!

Wait... What do you mean by "Rings" and "Better Oil" before rebuild ? Rebuild the whole engine

Jesus christ what are you talking about?


OP, does your engine burn oil or coolant? Check the levels and see which is being burnt, then report back here.

Yea either you had two problems which was consuming oil and blowing " White smoke " out the tail pipe at WOT. This would point toward a head gasket leak if the smokes is greyish white.

Blue colored or looking smoke is oil burning.

Or you were seeing the smoke but couldnt tell the color which sometimes can be hard and it was burning oil and the 5W oil is thicker and is not as thin burning in vtec.

But id like to know does it still consume oil with 5W? or is the smoke issue only gone?
