Re: Blue smoke after boost
All of them are tapped into the same place mine is. But I have only seen 1 other person use a 14b turbo. I have searched around there and didn't come up with a lot of info. They use mostly garrett T3's so maybe they dont need a restrictor unless its a BB turbo.

Re: Blue smoke after boost
I replyed to your Pm. It sounds alot like oil being pushed past the seals. I've had the same porblem on 2 other turbos. The oil feed line from the head has less pressure then the oil filter feed locations on the turbo modles. You can have as large of feed line as you like, the restriction will be limited to the smallest part of the line, ie the banjo bolt. If you are significantly worried about pressure you can drill the oil releave oil out larger on the oil pump, or install a restrictor valve into the line. I wouldn't worry about it with it, oil pressure is only a problem with turbos when you get into ball bearing modles.
Do as I suggested in the pm and see if you have oil residue in the LICP and intercooler. I didn't have much in my LICP, but had a bit in the intercooler. Sorry to hear about your issues. Just don't let it get worse. I ignored the issue and ended up snapping the turbin shaft sending my exdure wheel into my front o2. It's a nice paper weight at the office, but caused alot of unwanted work. Good luck and Happy Holiday's.. Scott See..

Re: Blue smoke after boost
I was just wondering regarding the turboing the NT topic....you said you can't adjust the fuel, so you aren't running any fuel management? I'm going to be running my SAFC 2 on mine so I was wondering what you were doing.

Re: Blue smoke after boost
I am running a fuel managment unit. It works off of vacumm pressure. When boost builds it ups my fuel pressure to force more fuel into the motor.
*UPDATE* - I talked to a guy from turbochargers.com and he said that these turbos already have restrictors in them and my oil pres didn't mess up the turbo. It must have been waiting to go out.

Re: Blue smoke after boost
Hey man not sure if you are still having the blue smoke problem or not but I had the same thing happen and I ended up fixing it making my own home made turbo oil line regulator with a gauge. I made a youtube video of it too so you can check it out here. Hope this helps!
