                also your turbo needs to be clocked so the feed line is at the top. not sure how your car is even running without burning oil like that.

                  Im confused. Why did you paint your turbo side exhuast houseing, your turbo is clocked all wrong, your distributor is still on yet you have wasted spark?
                  Looks like a start keep it going!

                    Please rotate the housing. The oil drains via gravity. It doesn't drain properly if it's tilted like that. 15* max tilt.

                      figureing everything out one step at a time , ill figure everything out soon enough and yea i painted the turbo before when i first got it wasnt thinking either way its all burnt off now.

                      ill be repairing all the issues soon enough and re route the turbo .

                      as for the wasted spark it was working but than stopped working and have been working on it non stop lately so thats whats been keeping me busy atm also my wideband took a shit .

                        So many colors going on but keep up the good work.
                        Btw is your turbo kit from kamotors?

                          The turbo kit I put together my self it took a while for me to get everything but got it together I didn't want any kits honestly after reading most people have problems with a hole kit I got everything together

                          Kamotors was more than helpful with everything I bought a few parts off him and purchased his tune and it just needs a bit of tweaking overall the car runs smooth and strong at 20psi with no issues. TRACTION!! IS THE MAIN ISSUE
