shouldnt be pcv, all my stuff is disconnected. it is not recirculated i mean so there should be no introduction of oil to the intake charge at all. the pcv pipe is vented straight to my can and i disconnected the pipe from the throttle body and plugged both of those ports to see if it would...

Ok I will I know my power steering vacuum isn't hooked up.my valve thing on it is broke and has been since I bought the car. on the way home i decided to play around and watch my gauges and i found out that it only starts to smoke at or below about 25inhg vacuum. at 22 is just barely smokes. at...

I went and double checked it is inches. Reads like 16 to18 at cruise and starts smoking at 26 on decel

Well actually now that you mention it I think my gauge reads in inHg

I will pat results after this weekend. Just out of curiosity what should my vacuum be? It seems like out only does our under high vacuum, like 26 or 28 psi

Not doing the compression test is not because im screwing around its because I have a life and haber ben working.also my compassion yester and most of my god tools are at my parents house 1.5 hours away which is where I do most off my major work Ill get, out done when I get a chance to go home...

we have 93 here but thats the best ive seen, other than shops and the track

yeh thats true and i think some fill stations still have 97-98 octane. none around me but i have heard of places that do. as i said, i wouldnt recommend it unless you just have a lot of money and want to play around with it and blow up motors trying to get it right

i am not sure but at the time sean had said it was running at 360 for 4 years on the setup and at 450 for about 1000 miles. it is on the second page of that thread but i have not personally asked him if it is still holding that power

right. i wouldnt recommend that an inexperienced person do what sean has done but it just proves that the gasket isnt really the problem is all. here is another thread, i believe its the samecar just with a few adjustments...

he did do that but he also built one with stock gasket that made 500+ not the thread i was referring to but still searching for the other: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?95859-500-rwhp-on-stock-headgasket-and-bolts.

x-man put down well over 500, maybe even 600 on the stock hg, obviously not from the factory, but composite gasket. ill see if i can find the thread. edit: oops, didnt read the whole thread, it may have already been covered,if so, ill delete this after reading the rest of the thread

the smoke does burn my eyes and the valve seals were put in by the shop so i do not know. the head was assembled and the block was assembled. i assembled the head tothe block and the rest of the accessories and such. Nash, during break in and for a week or two after i did not have any problems...

yes, im pretty sure the rich condition is from my leak. yes, i changed the oil at 50, 500, and 1000 miles. when breaking in i ran up to 4k without boost then let it decel on its on in gear. a friend of mine also mentioned that running this rich may be coating my cylinder walls, could that be...

thinking about the way you explained it, could not having my can re routed cause a boost leak? also, i know blue smoke is oil, i just dont know from where. everything seemed fine when i first started driving it after the rebuild and its almost like its gradually getting worse. i really hate it...

im not saying your wrong or that i do not want your help but this is not a stock ct or even an upgraded ct for that matter. i am also only pushing 5 lbs with the an 8psi wastegate. do you really think i am pushing it too hard? i plan to get a new intercooler and piping very soon but i cannot...

valve seals were replaced with rebuild as well, i guess they could have been faulty. also, woulnt it only smoke on start up if it was VSS?

umm,smoke is bluish grey not really whiteish (not bhg smoke) no oil in water no water in oil. it is black when i push the gas(overly rich). also, boost leak is bad? i thought vacuum was the one that was bad. thanks for the quick reply and sorry my post was so long but i wanted to make sure i...

I have tried searching and i know that things like this have been covered but i cannot seem to find what im looking for, i believe my case is different. I just rebuilt my motor, new pistons, rings, mhg, arp harware, resealed turbo etc less that 2000miles ago. I broke in my engine and have been...

if it is rich i believe you want to back that screw all the way out(as it lets in more air to help lean out) i am having similar issues only im running 660s/lex and a boss turbo at only 5lbs but i get afrs in the 10s at cruise and my base is only at ~34psi. as for the boost thing, from what ive...
