BTW paul, your a tool. I might head down to the plex to watch you get some more 14 second passes. :(

Is it black smoke? cause an aftermarket BOV will cause this if it vents to atmo.

if there is oil comming out of the seals which are on top of ur rocker cover that connect to ur throttle body then ur turbos ****ed but otherwise a little bit of oil is nuthing to worry bout. another way to check is pull off all ur piping and check if theres movement in ur turbine if there is its ****ed. i say just drive hard and if it goes its a good thing the standard r33 turbos are shit and if ur gonna hi flow t3/t4 hybrid check out united fuel injection they did mine ,mackas and shannons turbo they r ****ing good and there quick so ur car will be off the road for **** all.

    • Tonight's pre bed listening:  carducci string quartet.   Might change to something a little more operatic.
    • That sort of chaos is totally on brand for them. My girls are friends with them and have seen some total chaos at various festivals and shows.
    • There is an svs pb13 ultra on fb marketplace that I've been watching. Might have to actually try and hear some in the flesh. Same guy with the rel's also has a matching sub to my lcr speakers. Updated drivers, but isn't cheap.
    • Might as well just upgrade to a Tonewinner D6000... I think if it goes down to $1.5 to $1.6k I'm going to do it... Will work out which part of the couch I'm allowed to sleep on once I'm banned from the bedroom.   Same, however technology changes and these days those once amazing subs are just mediocre compared to a SVS, Velodyne and now (apparently) Tonewinner.   They're always closed, treble performance drops and I notice the speakers fall off axis quite easily. Compromise right? I ran the room calibration with the door closed etc. and you could tell the room EQ correction slapped on more mid and treble. With Yamaha's YPAO, you can't see what has been applied to the EQ with correction applied, where as the older Audessey it showed you the post correction EQ.
    • That sounds pretty good. I saw them play at work, once. They were pretty good. One of the band members was slightly inebriated and throw a t-shirt merch box into the crowd. After their set, they tried to recoup the t-shirts or payment. Was funny and sad at the same time.
