I havent done a leak down test yet, but I pulled the oil pan yesterday to see if anything was in there. The reason I did is because john said there was a little bit of debris inside the turbo, but nothing bad and the seals were fine. So this leads us to believe something could be going out on the motor.....reason I need to do leak down. The only problem I may have for sure is the "spacer" oil kit thing I bought from john. I put the studs in the oil pan and began to torque things down. As soon as I put some torque on the nuts it just then went on "easy'. Meaning I could not tighten them anymore.....and whats even more weird is I could not loosen the nuts off!!! I dont know why, but they will not loosen and the stud isnt moving either. So since the stud isnt moving at all when i tighten or loosen the nut.....I guess its tight enough? Hell I dont know.....I am worried it will cause an oil leak.....almost feel like cutting the ends of the studs off and putting the dcr stuff back on.
Oh and what happened is my car smoked here and there...not during boost or letting off after a race, but in regular traffic where i hadnt boosted at all I would at times see some smoke. Pulled intake and intake manifold off...all dry.
