I would like to dyno, but it will be a last minute decision for me unfortunately. My car still has some smoke issues that hopefully I will have resolved by the 15th.

/\Thanks for the tip.

Yes, the exhaust housing is a V-band outlet. Yeah, that's a good idea to see if any oil is in the downpipe.-Would that indicate a bad turbo seal? There is a little bit of smoke coming up from under the turbo when it's hot. I felt down there and there is some oil around the return line-that...

Just an update.. I rebent and reseated my dipstick so it pushes in the hole now. Went out and took it for a ride again.. Boosted a little with no smoke at all, then I found an open stretch of road and got on it hard..Lots of smoke out the tal pipe again and then it clears up a few seconds after...

/\Yeah I can smell the oil when I boost hard. No "AM" oil pressure gauge..

Lol.. I hate acronyms.

Thanks Nash. I thought I would never have to go on here and ask, but I thought this would be a quick, simple problem..

Thanks for the advise.. AM pistons?

I will double check the throttle body coupler tomorrow, but I did not notice it last time it was removed. Hopefully I find something..

If there is no oil on the trottle body coupler.. does that mean there would be no oil in the intercooler or pipes.. I never had this problem before.. Now that I think about it, I did have the upper intercooler pipe off not long ago after it already had this problem and I saw no oil residue...

I have about 3000 miles on this motor. I have not done any leakdown tests since I replaced the head (after I burned up a valve). I just have doughts that the engine is bad since I never noticed any smoke when I had my GT35R on. I haven't checked if there is any oil in the intercooler. I was...

Have no idea what my max oil pressure is..

I put a .065 inch restricter, I'm pretty sure..

No, its quiet.

Like I said.. It's heading downhill at an angle towards the wheelwell a litte, then back acroos to the block. Do you think a symtom of a bad turbo seals is burning oil at high boost? I thought when turbos go bad, they smoke all the time.

Same place the stock turbo drains. I'm using the HPF manifold that sits kind of low.. So the drain line comes down, than goes almost straight across to the block.

Need some ideas on why my car is blowing lots of smoke out the tailpipe when I'm boosting heavy. I've had this problem ever since I installed my new 6262 PT billet turbo. I did take the first turbo back, and PT rebuilt it with new seals, but the car continues to smoke a lot (only under heavy...

As I'm a little older then the average age here, I remember going for a test drive with my dad in a brand new black 87 turbo. The supra turbo was a very fast car for 87 standards, but what really left an impression on me was how smooth and quiet the car was. We took it up to 90mph and it felt...

It's easy to forget how nice our cars were when new. Probably most will never even know.. Here is some high praise for our MK3 supra: http://www.cars.com/go/crp/research.jsp?makeid=47&modelid=437&year=1990&section=reviews
