dont worry thats not going on...

well... anyway.. hooked everything on.. oil leaks were minimal... so i took out for a spin today.. ya.. i guess theres too much oil being pumped into the turbo so it started leaking into the exhaust housing... and so then there was alot of smoke.. but at least there was an awesome whistle sound...

as for the turbo its off a skyline gts-t and currently im sitting here regreting i pulled the trigger since now i dont have a usable truck.. haha... o wells.. as long as i get her running by tomorrow. :D

Some turbos need a restrictor in the oil inlet. That or your seals are bad and need a rebuild.

that was definately the problem.. so instead of solving it.. i just hook the pump up after the turbo and started pulling the oil out faster that it was going in.. prob solved. drove it all around vegas yesterday.. no smoking and anything.. just have to build a shield or seomthing tomorrow at the machine shop or something.. the BOV sounds soo good!!! i jizz in my pants drivin it.. but as for boost... something is wrong.. i have a leak.. ill deal with that later when i get tuned.
