[QUOTE="EvilTwins, post: 8135955, member: 62345"] Yeah DO NOT drive your car with it burning oil! When I first bought my car it didn't really smoke at all, but by the end of the summer (about 4k miles) it was like I was burning old tires.. I then took the turbos off to be rebuilt (which sucked caused the guys hot tanked my turbine housings and stripped off the Jet-Hot coating so I had to send them back to Jet-Hot to be re-coated) and reinstalled them with new drain lines which I routed as good as physically possible, and I also installed Function7 restrictors. Here is what the drains looked like going into my oil pan: [ATTACH=full]1030396[/ATTACH] The bungs I had welded in: [ATTACH=full]1030397[/ATTACH] Oh and here's what had to be done to put in that god damn oil pan.... [ATTACH=full]1030398[/ATTACH] Oh and at least the turbos were all pretty before I reinstalled them: [ATTACH=full]1030399[/ATTACH] But as I kinda expected it started to smoke just a little so I immediately went with a scavenge pump. I can tell you from experience it's not worth screwing around, just do it right the first time!! And then shortly after all that I lost the engine... lol Anyways DO NOT drive with it smoking it will wreck your oil seals! I really didn't think cars with turbos mounted as high as yours would have trouble though, you really shouldn't... Maybe you should just try going with restrictors first and ensure those drain lines are PERFECT? [/QUOTE]
