Will have to take one tomorrow as it's too late to be running the thing in the garage. Better just be burning off shipping grease and 3 weeks worth of condensation... Cuz fuck, that was a huge job.

maybe just one? who knows. there should be a little smoke from the oil coating that lasts maybe a minute, and it's quite light. burns off faster from the exhaust than from the exterior which snokes under the hood. Unless your car was smoking before you did the job from something else, it's likely from the turbo

Well it's 40 degrees in the garage so maybe steam? I dunno until I drive this fucker, like I said was from both tail pipes and smelled like catless exhaust and not coolant or oil. Smoking I had from oem turbos was from seal on front. Wet exducer and manifold dry. I got 3 years to see right? ;)

Ok guys so I went all out and just installed custom side dump. This is crazy but it does look so bad ass. We still have to finish the trimming so they would match each other and heat wrap them and paint the tips black. So it wont be too noticable. Anyways it got a little louder . But I can hear those babies spool soo good

Bro that sucks so bad. My exhaust smoked a lot because of my piston cracked. My turbos are amazing btw. No smoke nothing no issues. Boosting 22 to 20 psi no problem and can go much more

Did you tun oil thr
So you seriously think two bad turbos right out of the box huh?
did you prime the turbos a few times at least? Before start up. I have seen new turbo installs smoke for 30 min at idle then dissapear after 15 min of driving. As well... oil burning would smell like oil burning. Just take her out and go from there.

Yeah I did, I unplugged all the injectors and let it crank for 10 seconds 3 times. I'm going to at least get a base tune from Ken and then take it out and get it up to temp.

Aside from the side dump being idiotic on this platform, and the obnoxiously loud exhaust you're going to have, you're a bit close to that power wire. Really poor work there.

It looks sick first of all in person. Second we will short it and paint black and wrap it. Third it was one of the best muffler welder that did this. 4th it is not loud because we installed resonators on both pipes. 5th I have the fastest spool ever. 6th. It looks like a track monster. And I took our another 40 pounds off the car. If I listened to all these small talkers like you I would never strip my interior that I LOVE and if i would never do that i would not be taking out GTRs and zr1s and be this fast as it is in my city.

Of course I will wrap the exhaust with heat wrap and the cable with heat reflective tape. I tried how hot it is there but its completely cold actualy. Not cold cold but cant even call it warm on the cable area. I was scared myself but only the exhaust is hot but we made sure it doesn't touch anything.

Thanks bro it's not loud obnoxious almost the same just a lil louder then it was but the turbo spool sound very good. Also doesn't touch ground or any plastics unless you go some bad uneven area like driving out of the shops so I just take longer and slower but doesn't touch speed bumps or anything like that. Looks so different and kind of cool. I hate Ricky or ghetto shit but this one is different in real life

If you want to drive around a race car, this platform is stupid for that. Your pro welder can weld fine, but the install by the wire is what was poor. Yeah, I'm sure straight dumps are not loud lol.
