Just Finished Single Install... Not Good...
#1
well i had a apex rx6 kit lying around, so i figured i would install it and see how it was. my car was running perfectly fine 2 months ago before i started doing the install. the car has been sitting for the winter and i started the single about 2 weeks ago. anyway got it done today and i fired it up.... blowing some thick oil and has 0 power. it doesnt want to idle at all. it smells of fuel and oil pretty bad. seems to me like the motor is blown but i dont understand how. i started the car before the install and no problems. did the install and now it runs like ****. any ideas of what it could be? maybe something i forgot to connect?

will do a compression test tomorrow. it seems more like the motor then the turbo just by the way it runs, idles, and sounds. unless there is an oil vacuum i forgot to connect. i still have the rats nest in, because i thought i might go back to the twins.
btw. the ecu is a power fc tuned for the turbo and 1200cc injectors.
also.. i checked the intercooler pipes and there was no oil so thats another reason i think its not the turbo.

my guess is you'r flooding your engine with those 1200cc injectors... you probably dont have the injectors set for stock... double check that.
and make sure everything is blocked off and capped properly

no problems with the turbo that i know of. no shaft play or anything either.
i am using the oil feed line that came with the kit. i dont know if there are any pills in it...
i will try to get a vid. ill see if my buddy has something i can use.
