I had another issue with white smoke starting to bellow out of the exhaust. Turns out turbo oil drain line was kinked and causing oil to pressurize within the turbo. It can be difficult to clock everything properly so make sure that the oil drain is threaded first while someone holds the turbo...

Update for my issue with this symptom, oil drain line from my Remnant turbo is kinked and not allowing proper drainage. Will have to clock turbo to make everything fit nicely, start car to see if it's still smoking or not. If so I will have to swap CHRA, if not I will have to take turbo out and...

First turbo self-deleted the wastegate flap and I had no boost til 5000rpm. Now more issues, unsure if turbo related but it is the most likely.

How do you get to that screen on the ecutek app? Mine does not look like that, and I can't measure my oil within the car. It always stops at ~18%.

Did you ever figure this out? I am having the exact issue.. Lots of white smoke when car is hot while coming to a stop or idling shortly after or if i rev. Smells faintly of oil. Am catless, no catch can. new issue shortly after installing a new second Remnant turbo. I also can’t check oil...

I am 30min from Nashville, I have a catless DP and the Borla Atak catback and I think it sounds great. Rumbles almost like a V8 at idle and gets loud, but still has the valved exhaust for highway cruising. And I picked it up used for a fraction of a BoostLogic exhaust.

Piece was nowhere to be found. Knocked the exhaust around and didn’t hear any rattling. But no cats or restrictions in exhaust so it probably shot out.

Update.. Found the issue. Wastegate flap delete mod.

Just started noticing the same issue on my drive side Launch Edition..

I will check that center V band. Unless the wastegate flap is physically broken inside the turbo, which I would consider unlikely, something like this has to be the problem. I can’t say for 100% that the downpipe gasket is there but it should be. I never removed it, but it’s possible it...

I'm not sure. If this is not a stupid fix I'm missing and there is actually something wrong with the turbo, it is something Alec has not seen before through the hundreds of cars with their turbos. But that would be my luck.

I've gone through all kinds of lengths on the WG arm, now it is set within spec and car is happy. The info I provided is exactly what the shop told me, along with a video with smoke drifting out of the compressor housing around the bolts the WG bracket uses to bolt to compressor housing. Yes I...

The mass airflow final is also missing the mass airflow target by quite a bit. I'd imagine this is consistent with an air leak somewhere, maybe pre-hot side?

Not currently at the shop. I'm curious what this test will tell that the smoke test did not? This will pressurize the hot side?

How can I plug the back of the turbo? Seal the exhaust tips? An idea someone else had was to pull the charge pipe off turbo and start car and see if it feels like a leaf blower like it should.

What do you mean? I don't have a Reflex kit.

Hey guys, I have a 2020 Supra LE with a catless downpipe and Borla catback tuned with Ecutek. I just dropped in a brand new Remnant 65 Omega turbo kit. After receiving and installing the kit I was very happy with the quality, installation instructions, and customer support of Remnant. I was...

Middle TN, and it seems yours is a bit more than I’m willing to spend.

I don’t have the stock downpipe.
