yea mine changes with the temps too. but when i boost i get it. imjust gonna stay away from unnecessary boost until i get some money saved to really start digging into the problem. i mean its been driving normal with no weird sounds or anything, just smoke.

yea i have no low fluids and the car runs absolutely fine. Let me know how that ptp fix works for you. if it makes a difference ill do it too!

All winter it didnt smoke at all. It only seems to happen at random. didnt do it all week, and just randomly started doing it tonight again. i honestly have no clue anymore.

No cats and i have a lot of black crap on exaust too. its normal dont worry about it haha

Will this same part fit in the vents above radio? I have my boost gauge installed in that vent.

If your planning on more mods DEFINETLY put it to recirc at least. Once i put a catless exaust i had major fuel cut. I thought cobb AP would fix it but it didnt. It is honestly best to keep the stock BPV on.

from experience i would take the bpv off. I had major fuel cut with a Turboxs catless exaust MSCAI and a HKS BOV. I was on stage2+ 93. once i put the stock bpv on i had no problems!

I wasnt smoking before going catless either. it smoked every once in a blue moon when i first took cats out so i didnt worry, now its pretty much when ever i get on it hard. maybe its worth the thirty bucks. even if it doesnt work at least i gave it a shot.

yea i took it to hamilton. their fine with it, BUT mazda sends a rep down from the headquarters or whatever to fully inspect your car for mods. They wont fix unless its bone stock!

yea i went to dealer and they said they couldnt get it to smoke either. And then they said once i put it to stock for me to bring it back for turbo replacement. I heard some people tell me that a catch can may be able to solve the problem.

yea i kinda figured it was a longshot for it to work, but when the dealer says its has to be stock the get it covered under warranty, the amount of work to achieve that is scary. its worth a shot, and also maybe a catch can will help it out

graduated from steinert in 07 haha

i have the EXACT same problem on my 07 SPD3. When i idle after i boost i get tons of smoke. I just brought it to dealership and said they couldnt get it to smoke at all. Im assuming if it was a bad turbo it would do it all the time. I just read up a little about the PTP fix but i couldnt find a...

yea it is. I was thinkin that i have a CAI and not SR could be the problem. But that shouldnt be that much of a difference. Ive been checking oil/coolant levels constantly and nothing seems to be lowering.

Lately ive been smoking alot after i boost. sometimes white sometimes black. enough to fill a parking lot. I have turboxs FMIC and turboback, MSCAI, and cobb AP set to the FMIC 93 map. I also noticed a boost drop. I was holding anywhere from 18-20PSI. Now Im seeing 15-17 PSI. idk if its just a...
