So I get a pretty good puff of blue smoke when I shift from 2nd to 3rd???? What do you think is going on there? A/F is reading really rich still(havent had time to tune it). Also I know I have a massive boost leak, I'm loosing 2psi in the higher rpm range 4-7k.

From what I have heard blue smoke is not a good thing man, it might be something big or small, probably didn't help any

I think blue smoke means oil, so check that. Correct me if I am wrong guys.

I think you are right, something to do with oil, maybe a leak

Blue=oil
Black=rich
White=coolant

How much smoke is it? ALOT?

If it's definitely blue smoke, then it sounds like oil burning somewhere. It's possible that the headgasket is beginning to leak or that your rings are beginning to give. Try doing a compression check to see some numbers--to eliminate some possibilities.

or turbo seals.. you have a used turbo dont you?

I'm 100 percent positive it's your turbo..just one thing to check to make sure. Drive the car without going into boost, and shift through the gears and such(shouldn't smoke), then start boosting her and see if it only smokes when you let off the throttle after boost. My friends Talon did this(only smoked off throttle after boost), and it turned out to be his seals in the turbo(T-25). This it what it sounds like to me, do that test and it will either prove me right or wrong.....

Yes I think your right! I did this today and again it made the smoke.....Anyone know how to get a new seal?

I'm not sure on this like last time, but I think you'll need to send the turbo out and have it rebuilt

Were did you get the turbo from?

You didn't get the turbo rebuilt B4 you put it in your car?

Now i am not advertising for them at all. Just all the rebuild kits i have bought from them, they were really helpful. My first turbo (T-4 for my 64 olds cutlass) needed to be rebuilt, and i took it all apart and had no idea what the heck i was really doing, so i got on the phone with them and they steped me thru the whole entire proccess, took like 2 hours too.....
So I give them a thumbs up for rebuild kits... And there prices are good too...

Ok so tubocity is $113 to get a rebuld kit...guy said it would take no time to do it. Looks like I have a project next week...good news is it only does it at high rpm...so just boostin low I get no smoke.

Thanks Guys!
