It is a messed up place right now, but its not going to end any time soon. All of this mess was predicted over 2000 years ago.

There, I fixed it for you.

Boost leak x1203982104912491724987. Check your timing also - both cam and ignition.

Weez: I used a brake line conduit bender to get mine the way I wanted it. I also took the mounting tab thats welded on the end of it and bent it flat - then used one of the compressor housing bolts to secure it to the turbo.

MDC Power FTw! :-)

Hunt - Your turbo PCV system has to have vacuum pull from the turbo intake. Theres no other way around it. Oil from the compressor seal or PVC system is blue, grey, or white. Oil comming from the turbine seal is PURE WHITE. Most turbo smoking comes from: -Too small or dirty air...

The drain must be no more than 10 deg off center. The turbo oil drains off of gravity, with the PCV vacuum helping it along. Any thing more than 10 deg, and the seals will leak causing smoking and turbo failure on down the road.

Lookin good! May I ask your setup on the welder (rod, gas, etc etc)?

Give credit where credit is due - Shaeff and Reignmaker - I wasn't doing it all alone.

Nope that was the aliens. Elvis says hi. They are all going on vacation to Loch Ness.

No thanks young sir. I enjoyed both positions. If this is an idle threat, let me know. Id like to know your definition of this "we" you talk about. This is good to know. :biglaugh:

To begin: I feel Ive always been here for the good of the community and its members (this includes sharing some things private to the public & aimed at keeping the public informed), so I decided to share my thoughts and feelings with you all. Ive been informed that Im fired from my duties...

Sounds to me like you've got a boost leak or pirate air comming in from some where.

Born in room 1955.

Unless the water cavity has rusted through into the bearing housing - no it can't leak. A ct26 also doesn't have a C clip inside to hold the bearings, thus there can't be a loose c clip inside.

Turbo seals only seal when under 3 forms of pressure: -Oil pressure -vacuum -Exhaust or boost pressure If its leaking while it has oil in it when its out of the car - its normal (unless its a carbon seal ct26 but I highly doubt it unless you got it off of a diesel carbed engine).

Just picked up a brick of CCi's @ nazimart (walmart) for $6.73 (50 rounds). Is lubricants with teflon aok or a no no?

Well its official - I got a new 9mm hot rod today. http://www.stiguns.com/guns/ls/ls.html This weekend should be interesting since I have a brick of new ammo here.... Any recommendations (sp?) on gun oils and ammo brands?

Walnut shells indeed... Both in the cleaning process and used as packing material inside the crates comming over from china.
