Hey Guys,
I'm hoping to find some help out here. Ok I bought this car wit 76k and now i'm at 85k yesterday. The problem I'm having is 2things.

1. I notice my boost goes from the 14psi I have set (pulled out of Boost Sioloed_cant spell) and it drops from 13-10 depending on RPM and gear.
A-Getting Upper and Lower IC piping and Greddy Type-S should fix this problem?

2. I just noticed after putting on a new valve cover, that now I'm burning oil. I left the hood open to find the problem right infront of my face. Other then the fact my oil return line leaks too.. If your looking at the engine [ {1} {2} {3} {4} ] in my diogram the the left... I see OIL sitting behind the exhuast gasket between ports 3 and 2 ..... Now this oil is flying out and hitting manifold cause smoke under boost. I'm not sure what this problem is....
A-I replaced my valve cover wit one off my totaled GST that I bought Powder Coated Red blablabla... The thing is tho, when installed the perimiter bolts back in, the bolts stopped screwing in on the center 2 bolts in the hoz. spots... 1 in front 1 in rear.... REALLY STRANGE..


I thank anyone for some help on this.. I'm really pissed off that my (DSM) DailyServiceMachine needs it that much really!

Thankz,
kendel
 
Here is a picture of a 1g engine bay. Mine is a 2g. But I found a good picture... OK

RED = Deposits of oil, just sits there, I clean it up, acts like it was fed by a river, try to remove, its filled back up again

GREEN = Places its hitting when under boost?? I guess, cause its wet there wit oil...

Somone Please help... Cause I also notice oil in my 4th spark plug hole is usually oil, or like something wet...

IDK

thankz,
kendel

Boost is going to be different with every gear especially since you're running a t25 and aswell it will drop off slowly as you pass the 5.5k rpm mark.

Concerning the oil problem, it sounds like you need to replace the valve cover gasket.
