    I will check mid afternoon. that hose was removed and a filter was added on the VC. Wouldn’t a cracked ringland show signs on a compression test or leak down?

    Blue/Grey smoke

    Thing is, it actually didn’t smoke I know who I bought from. No signs of the turbo being bad after replaced. No oil in IC piping or intake. Thought was hot side seals were bad so that’s why I replaced. Oil gets dirty pretty fast (same day) which leads me to believe there’s sludge holding rings...

    Best Engine Oil - All Mod Levels

    I’m still new to this platform and the website. I’ve been trying to find out what oil is recommended for slowing down smoke(turbo) and what’s recommended in general unless the 3 listed are the ones I should look into. I have some bolt ons and tuned on 93 octane pump gas. I’m not sure if this is...

    P2188

    So I get the p2188 code. System too rich at idle B1 I have a new primary 02 sensor. Checked all vac lines and checked for any boost leaks. New purge valve and OEM MAF. STFT as pictured at idle is not where it should be (I don’t think) and my HPFP psi is too high. No accessories on or ac or heat.

    Is there a way to check if the hot side of the turbo is in fact the culprit?

    Exhaust Smoke

    I haven’t taken the greatest look at the TIP so that will be my next step. The OCC is kinda shit with makeshift PVC hose cut up like Freddy but it works and no kinks in the hoses. I will take a look at the threads. I’m coming from Facebook Mazdaspeed owners page so a lot of info received could...
