My talon has been turbo charged for over a month now. Last week it started smoking blue exhaust. It turns out the drive side piston has a crack in it. All the other pistons rings are pretty much done as well.
My compression was 130psi across the board before we took it apart. One month prior they were all around 180psi. I was only running the minimum boast I could 8-11psi.
So now I'm doing a complete rebuild, 2g pistons, chrome rings, crank bearings, t-belt, water pump, b-shaft elimination. My head is only 5 months old so by Saturday I will have a brand new engine that is capable of making more power.
