Welp.....





My oil drain came loose and the car started to smoke heavily from the engine bay under full boost only. Found the drain was loose and had to take me turbo off to tighten it back down correctly. This is what I found

Not much really. Maybe a quarter of a quart?

I have no idea really. Clean it up, tighten the drain and try again?

That sucks dude...did anything seize up, or just oil starved? That is almost exactly what happened to my 2nd SC setup...looked like the inside of of a Bar B Que.

Actually the turbo spins fine. It still built boost and everything is fine despite it being covered in oil. I want to be optimistic and say it was just the loose drain and all my problems will he fixed when that is tightened lol
