Here is some background of the original problem.... #2 stopped coming online for some reason, Id hit 11-12psi... and when #2 should come online the boost dropped to about 6psi and then eventually 0 until the next gear.. so #1 was the only one doing anything... So I was gonna try TTC...
I put generic checkvalves where necessary to go TTC, but it didnt work... (check valves were very thin, no canister like the toyota ones... ) so I think thats why they didnt work... anyhow, I wired the actuators open today and then took the car for a quick spin.. I blew off my cone filter which isnt attached perfectly.. and then the car started smoking REALLY REALLY bad.. white smoke literally pouring out... ... I let it run for a while idle until smoke cleared and turned it off... then went to drive it home, well it smokes still but it wasnt as bad on the way home... I DID pull 15+ psi though, so I have reason to believe #2 is definately coming online now and im holding boost til redline... WAY more power... than before TTC..
Anyway... who knows what is causing all this white smoke.. did I finally smoke #2 or something? I have the Bleeder T, but the T is capped with a vaccum cap so 15psi seemed about right.. that was manual mode, second gear to get it responsive in TTC... I did pull intercooler piping off and intake pipe and there was a little oil around the end of the metal piping and a little in the intercooler/intake piping, but not a shit-ton.. did I just kill the turbo.. its FINALLY boosting now, it wasnt previously.. im hoping the smoke is something OTHER than the turbo... Please help me out
