While im hoping you dont have to remove EITHER turbo, pulling the rear is super easy if you just split it at the band and slip the coldside out...thats where the seals are anyways

Thanks Mike. When are you stopping in?

One issue solved, the fuel pressure to go. I will update in detail soon.

Yeah we'll see what happens. It seems to be a reoccurring theme so I'm curious how it's handled. You had the exhaust housings ceramic coated right? I'm wondering if the reassembly afterwards had something to do with it or it was like you found it from the get go.

Yes, I have seen what happened, and it AIN'T purdy!

Warning: There were no animals, tools, wives, friends, not so friends, neighbors, neighbors animals, trees, flowers, lawn, drug addicts, or any living/non-living entities harmed in what you are about to witness. What follows should only be performed by a dumbass lunatic, that has his/her head up his/her ass.

Smoke, I have it as seen in the video. After some investigation, this is what I found.

1/4" left on the dipstick!

As you can see I now have around a quart of oil in my exhaust all the way to the rear, and IC pipes/IC. I emailed Dan to let him know, and get his take on the situation. He basically told me no way is that from turbo seal failure, and offered up a great argument that made total sense.

So back to investigating what the hell was going on. All I could think of was I might of reversed the rear head gasket which might of block/diverted the oil somehow to the manifolds...

This is embarrassing, and my stomach turns just thinking about it. How the fuck could I have missed this?
