    Default EG6 D16 TURBO PROBLEMS

    got a friend that just turboed his car today, and for some reason, the BOV wasnt going off, theres enough pressure and everything is tightened up...and we tried 3 different BOV's and nothing...

    anothe problem was it smokes white smoke out the exhaust like crazy, theres no oil leak, and the turbo is spooling fine, could it be the worn out head gaskets? i believe he said he didnt rebuild the motor before he turbo'd it...

    ill post pics/videos of it tomorrow

    White smoke? That's more then likely headgasket.

    How many miles does the engine have now?

    Should've rebuilt it before going turbo.

    White smoke after turbo install is TURBO. Blown headgaskets normally steam instead of smoke out the exhaust and will normally pressurize the cooling system. As for BOV where is the vac line from the bov hooked up to the motor at. Need to check the drain like for turbo and maybe put a restrictor in the oil supply line.
