Hi, well to make a long story short last year i finished putting together my car with a rebuilt b21ft.

I took the car off the road about a month and a half ago and spent the time up until now replacing the worn out turbo with a rebuilt 60trim t3 and CFI injectors as well as replacing the turbo feed line and cleaning out the drain line.


I started her up the other day and drove it a couple times around the block then when i went to pull her in she started to smoke really bad, a Very light blue/whitish smoke.

I just changed the oil today to see if it would help, started her up and 30seconds to a minute later it started to smoke again, only this time it looked a lot more white then anything, but i did see hints of blue.

the car smokes no matter what, accel/decel, idle. The smoke is transparent but there is LOTS of it.


Any ideas of what it could be?

my thoughts so far are:
1) turbo bad
2) oil not draining from turbo
3) contamination in my gas from sitting for a month and a half in intermittant snow rain etc?
4) blown HG
