88 TII Vs 90 TII

We went at it a couple of times, but only 1 came out good. we went from a 40-50 roll and hung together through second, and then he pulled on me in 3rd and getting 3-4 cars before letting off after shifting to 4th. I am really dissapointed though. My Turbo started to smoke after too. So I think I might have bad oil seals because I can't locate any kind of leak(and yes, not even the top oil feed line). I get 102psi on both rotors with even bounces on all faces, so I'm thinking my motor can't be that bad to lose like this. His mods are basically the same as mine.

My buddys 88 TII Mods
Rebuilt Stockport S5 Block
Rebuilt Turbo
3" TID with HKS Filter
3"Exhaust with Greddy Power Xtreme Catback
Walbro Pump
Boosting 8 psi

Right. So it's understandable that you lost.
