yeah as states i woke up this morning had some last min chrissy shopping to do i was on my way to chady when i hit fullboost hear my turbo whisle like never before. thought nothing of it as i change my cooler pipes yesterday then on my way home ppl started to beep from behind i looked back and just a cloud of smoke oh well this means big banger is on her way

1. make sure it is the Turbo first, not the AFM. 2. Get it fixed before it gose bang, as it will be cheaper. 3. Have a bourbon and coke, It'll make ya feel better..... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

thanks

it was just a sugestion.....i personaly would be cheeckin everything to make sure it is the turbo or not.....probably what I should have said...sorry about that... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

just with checkin things, you said you changed your cooler pipes the day before..I split a hose when I was running a very small cooler...the thing still booster to tho it did sound funny......but I new somthing was wrong because of the black smoke commin out of the exhaust......after while (the next day) I planted my foot and BANG....the hose tore in half.... No boost and heaps of black smoke...changed the hose and every thing was back to normal.......

From the sounds of it it could be a blown turbo seal, does it only blow a ****load of smoke when idling?

no while drivin

does it blow heaps while not on the boost?

my mate had exact same thing happen to him 2 weeks ago, turns out he blew his head gasket-

EEVL you got it all wrong! have the bourben and coke First! then figure out what the phuck to do!

VLTSLPA i didnt see any smoke dude? Id get the box checked out mate! Vacume modulators ****ing themselfs can cause BIG white smoke!!

well i recently had a similar issue and apparently valve number 4 on my car had called it quits, so check that too mate, might be just that

I'm with dragya. Couple of thousand$$ later. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

do you have an air flow meter? If you have a leak in the cooler piping, air will come through, get measured, get boosted, get leaked, but fuel will be matched to it hence mega rich mixtures and black smoke. This will also be why the turbo made a bigger whistle - it would be spooling its arse off. * but i wouldnt thing a rich mixture would make that much smoke :P.
