well...

its been a very long weekend. and im not yet done since white smoke is coming out of the exhaust. smells like im burning oil. i'll need to tune this. there are things that i would like to try like an oil restrictor, changing the valve guide seals and of course tuning. anyway here are the pics of my 50% done turbo squatter meal set-up...

ooh, stock engine:

working on the IC:

how big is your return line? getting a bigger return line can help ease the pressure of the feed line so there is no need for an oil restrictor.
