sup everyone...after i have put a 5sfe turbo on my car and their seems to have white smoke coming out of my tail pipe...i know evryone might think its the head gasket problem but i already change the head gasket and the piston valve ring and it still having the same problems...or just maybe my air and fuel are not even?
the things i have replace are:
* pcv valve
*piston valve ring (so oil wont leak into engine)
*head gasket
*5sfe fuel injectors
*header gasket
*exhauste gasket
*valve gasket
one question: do i really need fuel regulator?
thanks

the air and fuel mixture is probably it, and also did you upgrade your oil and gas to synthetic and 93?

check and make sure that all your gaskets are still viable. i would guess you are burning oil... how long have you let it run? it may take a few minutes for the engine to sort itself out. also, if you have new, bigger injectors, and haven't adjusted the air/fuel ratio, you are probably running VERY rich. turbo systems aren't tuned right away. if you don't have an AFC or a FMU, you need to get one to adjust the fuel curve.

If he was to rich, the smoke would start to look black.

D-No-One, when you replace your rings, di you get a good look at the valve seats and the valves themselves?

The injectors you have, what size are there?

Ok.

One thing you must check, check the turbo oil line. Make sure the oil is not leaking into the compressor housing.

This maybe your problem. The seals on the shaft may be gone or the shaft maybe be worn.

This is an old turbo off a car? I bet so.
