I have a redtop sr20det with fmic full 3inch exhasut, apexi neo and greddy profec boost controler. One night a t bolt broke off the intercooler piping and the silicone disconneted. i managed to get it home barely. i put a new one on and now the exhasut smokes, and idles lower than it normally does and is not constant...
any help

you have a boost leak somewhere else besides that blown coupling.

What type of smoke? White? Blue? Black? Stick your face in the pipe and smell, try and smell the difference between oil or fuel smell.

I am with NRG on this one, probably too much fuel. A silicone coupler could be torn causing too much fuel to be dumped in.

A bad turbo won't cause poor idle, but would cause oil smoke from the exhaust.
