[QUOTE="2bscrewed, post: 8101742, member: 15222"] Well we trailered the car down to Chesapeake to have Ed put a break in tune on the car. He said all the sensors looked great and he had it drivable in less than 30 minutes. I drove the car back from Chesapeake to Gloucester putting about 60 miles on the car. When we got back, it was still smoking and the mufflers had oil dripping out of the tips. So we took the exhaust off of the down pipes and cleaned it out as best we could. We then drove the car with open down pipes for about 10 miles and it still kept smoking. We then took the feed lines off the turbos and added oil flow restrictors to lower the pressure feeding the turbos. We are hoping that it is just the built motor with the Melling pump was just too much pressure for the turbo seals. Once we did that we drove it again with open down pipes and and it seemed to clear up. So we put the rest of the exhaust back on, and it started smoking again a little. Hopefully it is just residue left in the back half of the exhaust and it burns off tomorrow. It's starting to get pretty annoying. If it does clear up, we should get it tuned on Saturday. By the way, that face plated tranny is definitely gonna take some getting used to! haha [/QUOTE]
