    Burning oil, but where is it going???

    well that's why I thought maybe changing viscosity oil may help in that sense? I know it is a turbo car but to burn this much and for it to be that black after an oil change doesn't seem normal.

    oil viscosity

    nope, shifts are 2500-3000rpm daily. You would think so with issues like this right? But no, ever since I've been trying to narrow down the issue and been checking oil its been granny driven for the most part.

    oil viscosity

    So I've been doing a lot of research on oil and oil consumption on these msp's I got mine in November only real problem I've been having is oil disappearing. I've done a compression test, (read better than factory specs straight across) full tune up, checked for leaks, it doesn't blow smoke on...

    Need help with electrical issue

    happens to almost everyone, lol. that's why I always lock it when I leave the car that way it won't try to arm itself. If you do however end up having the alarm armed just unlock it inside with the key out pressing the unlock on the fob, worked for me.

    another oil consumption thread

    bump... still looking for outlook on the restrictor line as a possibility, anyone know anything about that? I was told these turbos factory have a built in oil feed restrictor. I bought the car with a replaced turbo if its not oem I figured it may have an aftermarket/wrong size restrictor .

    another oil consumption thread

    anyone ever run into issues with the oil feed line? was thinking maybe a restrictor in the oil feed line could be an issue. Anyone know the stock restrictor size?

    spool problem

    are you running a blow off valve or a by pass valve? you did relocate the maf closer to the throttle body or do you plan to? if your running a bov and your maf is located in its factory place you may want to try mounting it closer to the tb for a better reading

    thinking of going catless

    figured there would be nothing quite like deleting it fully. alright so probably the cheapest alternative to doing this would be to cut the cat out and replace it with a straight pipe aposed to getting the midpipe which is like $300 plus shipping? Main reason why I want to do this is because its...

    thinking of going catless

    I'd have to say it depends on the shop. If the nofouler works I'd like to try it out. What do I need to get to put in place? would a high flow cat be the same as going no cat??

    another oil consumption thread

    we ran the compression test numbers read between 210 and 220 across which is higher then I was expecting ... no leaks in the back of the motor, return lines are fine, drain plug is fine, tube running from valve cover to intake had no oil in it.

    thinking of going catless

    looking for thoughts on this, who has done it? what did it improve? is it louder? currently I'm running magnaflow 2.5" cat back I like it but its really quiet and I feel if I run catless or maybe even a hi -flow it might pep it up a bit. Also has anyone run a defouler when going catless to...
