just have an exhaust shop do it for $10-$15 bucks

don't have the dealer do it. don't even think they would anywayz

Yeah but in order to do that, the downpipe has to be taken out. I can't do that b/c I work and can't get away to go to the exhuat shop. So I am thinking to just have them do it. I think my mech will do anyway due to the fact Mazda was the one who istalled the system anyway. But the time is now b/c the car should be ready tomorrow afternoon.

This is a situation with some or maybe all 07 MS3's even some MS6's. It is the turbo seals. Drops of oil get in between and therefore burn creating white smoke. You might not see it as much b/c of all the restrictions with the stock exhaust. I have as you know 3"s all the way back with one high flow and one 12" muffler. So you can imagine what it looks like when I smoke.

Sunday I was smoking bad, like clouds and clouds. But this is only during idle. So it happened again when they went for a test drive. Oh well... This is normal for all turbo cars, especially when you start buying aftermarket big turbo's...

Aw turbo seals issue makes me uncomfortable... I really need to talk to my dealer tech about my aftermarket stuff.

Well purchased and awaiting shipment. Like I said before I hope I get it before the w/e so can tune on the w/e. Sure MS3ICA, I plan on tuning everything but timing. Are you planning on bumping up the psi. I am going to 18. Well on one map for sure.

18 psi and a good tune youll push some sick ass numbers. once i get the buddah im all over it. with my mods it should be nothing short of interesting and load blowing.

I get a little bit of white smoke ever so often when I first start the car but it's not alarming to me because it's probably just condensation inside the exhaust burning off. The turbo seals having problems though makes me a little bit nervous if I want to up the boost.

Well car is in my hands. Feels strong with a new turbo and sounds sweet. Still waiting for the ECU. Hopefully, I will be able to install Sat.

That's funny b/c the old turbo was a new turbo too, lmao. (smoke)

Whats funny is that I forgot about the engine mount and the slight vibrations. I got used to driving the amada I had as a rental. That thing rides sweet.

Good luck to you Andre, and although we may not have anyone in the shop this weekend, do give us a call on Monday if you have any questions or concerns. We're dying to see what kind of numbers you can make with your setup (alright)
