Ok, so i started my car this morning. Everything was running fine and then while it was idling i got a huge cloud of oil smoke from the exhaust with a smaller one from under the hood. Then the car stalled. Now its almost imposible to start and when it does if im not on the trottle it will stall right away. Im guessing that the turbo went and is possibly causing an obstruction for the exhaust flow through the manifold.

Any opinions before i tear off the turbos?

You need to give more details to what kind of mod, ecu, how many miles, etc etc..



Its hard to tell just by reading what's really going on..
