    Oil consumption

    So I did the oil, replaced the cone filter on the short ram and did the plugs. Now my car smokes and burns oil but the plugs were nice, not fouled at all, actually looked to be running well if the plugs told the story. So Now I ask could this be an issue with the heads? or would i see fouling on...

    been awhile, been busy but not with my subie, gonna get her on the road here shortly for the summer, the oil consumption did go down a bit with the new turbo, however couldnt get enough boost from turbo, changed actuator, it helped but not peaking like it should. Still goes through oil, smokes...

    Turbo swap issue

    Thx ya I seen that but that would mean it's just new stock then the heads would likely be expensive to re do so I figure 5-6 g all in and it be good again but once I get that figured I will post the journey thx Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Turbo swap issue

    Well same result with old actuator, not hitting high boost, but still spools well and holds well at lower boost, oil consumption down somewhat, however the old motor is seeing her day I fear. With that I hope to save up and rebuild eventually thx for all the help and info you all are great...

    Turbo swap issue

    So I put in my fabricated restrictor pill and make 12.5 pounds of boost before 5000 rpm so it's working better, I updated my access port finally and will do some logging today. Thx again for everything eh lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Turbo swap issue

    Thank you sir! Yes waste gate was 0% and no I was never above 11 psi so far, but is steady at lower psi, I will jimmy up a pill here and see if this helps .040 welding electrode tip and I will enlarge this slightly debur and install and hopefully post my findings Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Turbo swap issue

    Or it could be one of many reasons but this pill definitely needs to be replaced? Or do some turbos discard this all together? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Turbo swap issue

    I realize the pills function. So if I am missing this pill I will not be making boost, correct? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Turbo swap issue

    I could only make 11 psi of boost at very high rpm, could it be running the pre set on waste gate actuator? Or does a td0516g not use a restrictor pill? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Turbo swap issue

    So a lil issue again, the restrictor pill is gone from the boost line from the T connector longer end, is this its location or before the T connector? Also I believe it's an .043 sizing? If so I have .045 welding electrode tips I can modify if .002 won't matter much as the turbo is said to flow...

    Turbo swap issue

    So I got the nerve to start the car last night, but the idle was horrid, wouldn't keep idling on its own, had me worried until I seen the two hoses I forgot (both intake, one manifold, one intake tube) put those on and we were good, once the turbo heated up and the liquid wrench burnt off took...
