What The f**k Is Wrong?

[Damo_R34]

fecked turbs will pour out white smoke.

hey Chad, didnt your piston jam in a perfect position so you could keep driving it?

[SLED]

leaking intercooler hose will.....and also blow black smoke though

[SLED]

how did Adrian's post go before mine when it was written 2 mins after, lol

[rad100]

checked ur coilpacks? that makes wrx idle if one is missing! checked ur plugs? coz if its missing it would be blowing black smoke for unburnt fuel!

[craig R33]

coil packs are near new splitfires.

i checked all piping and appeared A'okay

as i said, simon has it now, i cant check anything,

ill keep ya all posted as soon as i find out.

cheers for the help all

[Damo_R34]

ill put my money on a combination of things rather than internals. With internals, they usually go when ur hammering through the rev range, i reckon u have a dud coilpack + cracked cooler pipe, like maybe on the inside of an elbow

yeah, as you can see in this pic a large piece of the piston broke away but was held in place buy the rings, so under boost the piece was pushed back in to fill the whole, only blew big clouds of white smoke every now and then when i took off from the lights.

check the deterioration of the top land Chad, looks like it had been running on bad mixtures or timing for awhile

hahahaha SAU fail!!!

[Sambo33]

i had 6 f**ked ringlands in mine, and the funny thing was it idled nice and drove nicely too. it was just boosting it over 4.5k and out came the massive smoke clouds and a full catch can of oil

Yeah, im pretty sure the cause was a bad puel pump, its was replaced, but obviously it was to late for it and it ended up dying on me, but it also could have been a bad injector as only one piston was like that, all the others were fine.

[Ryanrb25]

Here's what a dirty injector does to a piston. Always pay's to get either brand new injectors or get second hand ones cleaned and flow tested.

oh man, this sounds like what my cars doing but my car idles lumpy and abit all over the place but drives alright but massive clouds of black smoke between gears under boost

was it one of the back cylinders......#6 tends to run on the lean side on RB's apparently......plenum design or something similar I believe

[shy_s6]

fecked turbo would cause white smoke, correct?

thats only if the oil seal is broken, ive seen a few exhaust wheels come off, just causes the fuel ratios to go to shit. aka black smoke

have you tried another stock bov at all?

hopefiully you used decent metal gaskets for the mani to block and mani to turbs areas

[Sinful]

Love all the speculation!!

It's at morpowa and I am sure they will find the problem for you!

I really hope it's not internally But with this sort of issue can be alot of things as mentioned above

Good Luck!!

[craig R33]

yeah we used metal gaskets.

just got a call from simon, he is also stumped, last i heard, he was gonna check AFM.

i think dan is onto something with the exhaust wheel coming off.....that would explain the bad boosting sound

and bad afr...........

[craig R33]

just got another call from simon

he found a split in an intercooler pipe, he just replaced it and bout to run the dyno.

*punches self in face, why didnt i check it properly, f**k head*
