Smoke could be many things hopefully its nothing major it may be just to much oil pressure going into the turbo.

Rodney and I just received butters car here at FSP. I have documented numerous photos so everyone can see the build progress. We have some items at hand to take care of, this will be discussed between butters and FSP.

Well guys, my car has left RX and is now in the hands of Matt@FSP. He is currently doing a complete audit of the car. The pics he is sending me are pretty mind boggling.

Thanks again to everyone who has been reaching out. We'll keep you posted.

The 1/2" Rubber line that is pushed onto the valve cover fitting with no clamp needs to be replaced. Once this is replaced, and the oil feed line shortened I think we can take care of most of the smoking issues.
