up and running -- sort of -- question inside?
up and running -- sort of -- question inside? Well after a couple weeks of the car being down, waiting on parts, etc., the car is running sort of.
Here is the deal -- Noyzee's twin turbo setup, his GTP S2 6.0 heads, speed inc. fuel setup (Bosch external, -8 feed and return lines, Nasty rails). Filled up with some Mobil 1 and some fresh Dexcool and some fresh 93 octane.
Start it up for the first time and it found as it was finding idle it started to smoke a bit from the headers/manifolds (oil, fingerprints, etc. burning off from install -- used to that from all the different times I've done the header/heads/cam installs). So then the drivers side stops smoking after a moment, but the passenger side INCREASES smoke. So I shut it down checked everything out to see if I were burning the plug wires/starter/whatever. Everything looks fine so I start it up again. No smoke from either side for a minute then the passenger side starts smoking again and the manifold is getting HOT (starting to change color after IDLEing for a few minutes
). So I imidetely shut it down and gave up for the night.
Car is not running hot, oil pressure is perfect. Didn't have EFIlive hooked up at the time
So the only thing I can think of is that the oil supply line isn't working on that side. But it feeds directly off the same T-fitting as the drivers side turbo and that side is good to go.
I guess tomorrow I'll be taking the down pipe off and checking to see if the turbine is even spinning
Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions of stuff to check other than the turbine and to see if the feed line is kinked?
BTW -- sorry for the long post
