ok so i just got done with my swap and i went to do the first start up and it fired up instantly and then poured so much smoke out that i could not even see the car anymore. so i gave it a bit of gas and to clear out any crap that might have been built up in the engine and then shut it off and looked under the car and found this...




the oil is very clean it does not look like it was combusted or anything and i pulled the plugs on both rotors and they were relatively clean, my question is can this be from a bad turbo leaking oil into the exhaust, i mean there is a **** load of oil that came out, proly close to a quart but the motor kept running and didnt even try to die or anything. does anyone know what this could be?

 

well it looks red do u have a auto or is it a 5speed and did u check your dipstick? and with that about of oil u should be able to get under it and see where its leaking from.

 

its not a leak it is coming out of the down pipe!

 

 

thats what i said

 

Clean the whole engine really well.

Run it for a few seconds, turn off.
Get under the car to see exactly where the oil is coming from. That much oil would have to be coming out of a broken oil cooler, or a busted line. That is a ton of oil to spray from just a quick start up.

 

i watched it come out of the down pipe with my own eyes, the car was running for about 2 min or so. it is just running off the downpipe right now cuz my cat back flange does not match the down pipe
