Wrx pissing oil, no performance drop?
New to the turbo life and thread game So here it goes. Just need suggestions, Don't have the time to work on her so anything that can point me in the right direction is helpful thanks in advance!
2006 subaru Impreza wrx
Cobb stage 2, v3 accesport tune on 93 octane.
3 inch turbo back, cat deletes with a spt muffler and CAI along with a cobb turbo heatshield. Peaking at 17psi
Question.: Where's the oil coming from and has anyone had the same issue? Is my **** F*****? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Not sure where i'm leaking oil from but when i gas her she just leaks more oil Not running into boost issues or any performance problems. Just leaking more oil when gassed.
vvV Here's how it happened. Vvv
I did a second gear pull up my driveway didn't feel anything other than all fours spinning. When I got to the top of my driveway to park her I immediately got smacked with alot of white smoke that was obviously oil. Let her cool down a bit and opened the hood to see smoke coming from. Let the car cool down and shut her off making sure no fire started. I automatically assumed a turbo seal though when I lifted it up on jacks and found the turbo seals fine. Then I thought head gasket or valve cover gasket. Well I would have loved to find the leak but theirs too much oil to find out where the leaks coming from. Parked the car to the side and know the caliper pistons are seizing which need attention asap along with the other things. Whats next.
