Well the TN kit is off so let's see if I can get it sold and figure out what to do next..

It's just so sad my GTM Turbo cams never got any love yet

 

Are you staying na or just in the middle of a project.

 

My new Greddy TT and GTM cams will be getting lots of love Friday!

You can't go wrong with the Greddy! Price, quality, capacity to make power, spool up.

I upgraded the clamps to t-bolt clamps, ordered the Tial BOV, added K&N filters, SGP 3" downpipes & wg relocation w/open dump, and the cams.

Jump on the bandwagon brother with a proven power package!

I will be in Georgia in December

 

Hmm, idk right now but NA is so slowwww......

Good thing I have a GSXR

 

Dude you got rid of the turbo. Im guessing your problem never got resolved. Get the STS kit.

 

Change your oil return to a SS braided line with a 45 degree elbow that's routed correctly, change out your PCV valves and lines, install a catch can, change out your turbo, pull the plugs and check for oil, and run the car for a good amount of miles to clean out the exhaust tract. If you're still smoking, run a compression/leakdown test and hope it passes.

If you're still having smoking issues then I'll just say common sense would say it's not the actual turbo.

 

Yeah... change out your turbo.... Turbonetics sending him a free one?

No clue... I don't work there.

 

Only free if your in warranty

 

No I mentioned in another thread that it was thermal failure(coking) oil residue build-up was on the components.

Change your oil return to a SS braided line with a 45 degree elbow that's routed correctly.
Done I bought the AAM kit
Change out your PCV valves and lines.
Done and inspected
Install a catch can.
Done, a Greddy and that was fun routing in the bumper
Change out your turbo.
Sent for inspection and reported the above failure
Pull the plugs and check for oil, run a compression/leak-down test and hope it passes.
New motor from BuiltZmotors

Due to the type of failure I feel confident that if I replaced with a new one the problem wouldn't return for a while but I was out of warranty and didn't want to run the risk of having another Turbo fail again. I was using the TN oil so I guess Motul is the next step up but since I have a built motor now I need more capability anyway. For now the car is running perfect NA so atleast I get to drive it and hopefully I will either sell what remains of the kit and buy a Greddy or wait until TN releases something in the future that is water-cooled with more output.

 

I need some kind of Tuner kit.

 

So if it's the turbo then get a water cooled bearing housing? You're not going to be able to do much with the kit with leaky seals anyway. Might as well explore your options...

 

Are you planning on stopping by?

 

Yes I think I get to choose for my Z to be shipped to Atlanta or Orlando but I need to see my military orders first.

 

my GSX-R was slow so i modded the engine and now i have 170 whp and 91 TQ
