Last year marked the last year for my stock 98 gsx engine... spun a main bearing smashed the valves all the goodies... no worries though a 2.3 stroker kit, crowler everything in the head and a nice 57trim garrett turbo will make the rebuild really nice... one would think... I finished the project a few weeks ago, drove it problem free for 1,000 miles, and then got it tuned. 372whp 333ftlbs @ 20psi. - alright for one of the worst tunes i have ever seen... ( not to mention where i went but i would NEVER go back ) on my way home oil everywhere!!! i fixed the problem last night and today took the car out for a nice ride. i rode out 1st till 5,000... 2nd to 6,000 and 3rd gear at around 6,500 it started lagging i though so i got off the gas and shifted into 4th... now just driving normal shifted into 5th... the car almost stalled. i pull into a gas station and the car shut off. i restarted it and poped the hood my breather on the vanve cover was pouring out white smoke, and the tail pipe was pumping out nice blue/grey smoke... thank god i was 2min from my house, shifting at 2K i made it home and parked my poor poor dsm... Any ideas guys? im totally burnt out from this project and i dont know where to go from here... 

.... just another case of DSM luck i guess...
