a friend of mine who knows how to build engines built it for me

im hoping i dont gotta remove my head

i will check the compression when i get a test

im goin to replace the oil, cap off the coolant parts of the turbo and see if that helps and see if maybe i have a vacuum leak. last time my car was doin this i had some bad o-rings next to my fuel injector seats

i was thinkin it was from the turbo which is why i was gonna run a line connecting the coolant fittings and just run oil thru it

ok guys, go ahead and call me retarded but i think i know whats wrong. i thought maybe the seals in the turbo was bad so i popped off my intercooler piping and there is no oil. and i remember my last turbo that blew has shot oil throughout my piping and i forgot to clean out the piping lol. so im goin to take off my cold side piping and clean the shit out and the reason why the car hesitates in the higher rpm is because im lettin in more oil haha. i hate myself.

and the milky shit is from condensation because its been blizzard weather for about the last 2 weeks. so i gotta just take off the valve cover, clean it out and put it back on and im good. i hope this time it will be right
