I'm getting smoke at 20psi now, fuel turned right down, slow as hell. Checked everywhere I can think of for boost leaks, mikalor clamped the turbo to intercooler pipe etc. Think the wastegate is buggered meaning i'm going to have to take it off and maybe get it welded up. Or just get yet another turbo as it has a worrying amount of oil covering the compressor side.
As my exhaust studs and inlet studs are really struggling now, as in i'm now down two exhaust studs, it's quite annoying. Do you think it's a good idea to use some copper slip on the studs to try and save the threads..?
