Well, they're toast. Started the car yesterday... smoke. LOTS of it. OIL. Didn't stop smoking. Drove car. Smoked on acceleration. Returned to driveway to find puddle. Car smoking under hood... Shut off. Popped hood. Turbos leaking oil everywhere.





Oh well. Needed an excuse to upgrade. Here's my chance.



Should I go ahead and rebuild the motor and port it while its out? It's stock with 65K as well.





I've never ran the car to the max. Never boosted over 10PSI. Have ALL the reliability mods done. What the hell happened?

 

damn that sucks....... if you have the money..... might as well do all the work you can

 

my turbos got over 110 miles on it....... but then again,i dont think its been running 10lbs in a while, and its been smoking on startup for a good while

 

I'm thinking a nice set of B&R's will replace these....

 

thats the way im goin when my turbos go....... or maybe even before.... if i can gather the cash

 

eh i'm going single, my turbos are going to go soon, they smoke pretty bad and spit oil, but whenever i get some extra cash, i'll be throwing on a gt35/40 i think

 

Has your car been sitting around or do you drive it daily?

 

I don't drive it daily. It does sit fometimes for a week or more... But I at least try to back it out of the garage and warm it up when I get the chance. It always smoked a little for the first minute maybe.



Weird cause I can't think of anything I could have done to kill them... Last time I drove it, they were fine. Started it up 3-4 days later and they won't stop smoking....

 

i got some stock twins for sale if you wnat them...i dont need them since i am single turbo mode..

 

i'd say go for mazda 99 twins if you are gonna get new ones
