We need to look it over. It could possibly be something simple like a loose vacuum line.

If it is smoking bad, like you said earlier, it could be piston rings, h/g or the turbo seals.

Hopefully the seals, b/c a simple turbo swap or rebuild turbo would be alot cheaper and easier than tearing into the motor.

Buy a compression guage and we can do a quick check and rule out turbo or motor....but if you hit 27psi, chances are its not going to be good.... 8)

I have a compression guage if needed

Check the compression asap, sh*t hit the fan when i blew an already leaky vacuum line in my old car...bent some valves right away. Hopefully your damage is minor and you didn't harm any pistons...

turbo seals are the least of your worries at 27psi :shock:

no it was the turbo... piece of shit 14b
