Hey guys,

I pushed my car a bit yesterday. I accelerated from 80 to 120mph. I might of been at WOT, but I don't think so.

Anyway...I looked in my rearview and saw a relatively large cloud of grey smoke coming from my car. Then some started to come from my engine bay. It went away pretty quickly. I came home and shut down. I started it later and everything seemed fine. Think I did anything bad? I figured that all the smoke was just the rich fuel/air mixture and the smoke from the engine bay was seeping between the manifold and downpipe. My car sounded and felt fine when I was boosting.

My mods are: intake, mp, dp, cat-back, and Pettit ECU.

 

that once happened to me before but my car is fine, that was about 2000k ago. i think you were just running a little rich, what are you boosting?

 

It's probably just the OMP dumping oil to cool the engine. Nothing to worry about. You did cool down the turbos right? Let it run for a min or two before you shut the car off after a hard run.

 

It also could be your turbos buring oil.

 

Thanks guys. I drove it lightly for about ten minutes and then let it cool for about two minutes. I know that my turbos are shooting a little oil. I think the seals are going/gone. They'll be bad within a year. I'll either go single just get ported ones. I think I was only boosting 12, maybe 13 psi. I've never hit the limit. I've never felt the need to.

I shoud add, that there was a 300ZX tailgating me and a new riced out Eclipse pacing me, so I figured that I would do a little "flexing".

Thanks a lot.
