    Valve buckets & shims got all mixed up (Stupid red squirrel!!!!)

    Also you said the exhaust manifold had white residue in it? Did the intercooler pipes have oil in them as well? Or else how did the oil get into the exhuast manifold?

    car is burning oil on start up?

    It's still smoking. Are you certain this turbo is screwed too? Odd coincendence. As for the old turbo, was the drain in good shape, and unrestricted?

    PCV system/ explanation and mod

    It's a GREAT idea, IMHO. Being it ran to pre turbo(MY RECOMMENDATIONS) or to atmosphere. Props OP!! But the stock setup works well for those who have the provisions.

    Having problems running please help!

    I'd say one of them is your temp sensor, not sure about the blue one though. I wouldn't spray carb cleaner on your afm, apparently its not good for it.

    Crank, No Start!

    Smell your tail pipe after cranking for a bit, if your getting fuel you'll smell it in there. But that is a bit of hack test, and doens't mean your getting the correct amout of fuel or at the correct time. Does the engine even try to sputter?
