turbo problems

[2KaotiK]

Well my T25 bit the dust and I had a T28 put in.. but the car is still smoking like a mofo.. the blade off of my T25 is missing so we're thinking its somewhere in my engine. Not to mention that Cylinder #1 is at 90lbs of compression and dropping steadily - especially after putting in the new turbo. anyone ever heard of this? I *really* need some suggestions.

what color is the smoke coming out of the car? Remember...
Blue=Oil
White=Coolant
Black=Fuel

oh its definitely oilsmoke - thats how i knew my turbo was out in the first place.. thing is, it WAS the turbo.. but its something else too.

well given the fact that there is only 90 psi in that one cylinder, and theres blue smoke that leads me to think it has something to do with the piston rings in that cylinder

could the missing part from the turbo have something to do with that?

take ur spark plugs out, and look down teh hole. and if a blade did get broken off, It might have lodged its self in the intercooler.
