Philadelphia's Classiest Drunkards
wish you would have spoke up son! I'm on a new(er) <50k VIII w/9.8cm2 hotside now. going to put my old 100k mile turbo back on and see if thats any better.
there is white/grey/black smoke when I'm transitioning between gas and brake, but Im not seeing black smoke in the video on the straights when Im WOT. maybe its just not visable in the video...

Thanks broseph but I got dis old VIII right her imma use.
James, my theory is that under load, when the turbo's spooling, the center section is spinning on its axis like it should. Force is being applied to the impeller and all is good and leak free. when I lift off the throttle, that shaft starts slowing down and doesn't have the same stabilizing forces on it which is allowing oil to seep out into the exhaust. make sense?

It almost seems like it is vacuum related smoke due to something else like a clogged pcv that won't allow the crankcase to vent well.
hmm - that could be possible. Usually when you're on throttle no matter what the oil pressures are higher forcing oil to seep past seals. When off throttle the oil pressure goes down a bit so I would find it strange to leak only then.
