    But we are goign to rebuild the turbo for him first at his request to see if it will fix his "oil consumption" problems.

    IMO, a b16 with rods an pistons and a STOCK intake manifold at 10-12psi shouldnt be making over 300whp. Usually 1.8l make that much, not 1.6l. i really hope seth invests in a JG manifold, there is prob a good 20-30whp + gain with less boost in its design

    I understand what your saying. I told that boy not half ass it and do the shit right but he won't listen to anybody.

    Haha, AD your funny. I already plan to upgrade my intake manifold and build the head. Since I changed my oil feed line from a -4 to -3 line i haven't been smoking. Although the turbo is a need for a rebuilt as I already told Charles the details when I pulled it out the week before. 1
