hi guys,

 

rite the passengerside exhaust is poofing out blue smoke now i thought it was the oil seal in the turbo but somebody said it might be the pcv i removed the pipes and the drivers side it sucking very well

 

but the passengerside doesnt suck asmuch and there is a small ammount of water in each pipe (is that normal)

 

and i have a faulty knock sensor aswell (which looks like great fun to change)

 

so basically i am asking if the pcv would cause that side of the engine to burn oil

 

or is it infact the turbo

 

and would the knock sensor cause the overfuling and black exhaust tips even after as little as 10 miles

oh right i thought u ment it dripped onto exhaust

think there t25's

 

That's stock turbos and if you're trying to scream all the boost in the world out of them as your 400bhp (which you can't get from stock Turbos) signature and forum name dictate, then the turbos will be fried!

carnt afford uprated 1's at the minute tho buddy so gonna havr to fix/replace what i got

False economy if you're then intending on upgrading to obtain 400bhp. Get the PCV valves swapped over and see how that goes. Cheapest thing to do.

From experience.....

 

Blue smoke is PCV ..... White smoke is Turbos....

 

Get the valves changed as Si says, it's cheapest option....

Isnt it the other way round? he has both white smoke and a bit of blue from passenger side

yes

 

Safety boost causes overfueling which causes very black exhaust tips and sometimes small amounts of black smoke
