Hey guys brand new dilemma proudly brought to you by KA24ET! Yes I have searched! well all jokes aside here’s whats happening. I’ll post my setup at the bottom. I was home for spring break last week and it drove fine prior to the incident. So my friend was driving my car, got curious and boost shot up to 15lbs. The car starts smoking (white smoke under the hood coming from the breather that sits on the valve cover, a lot of white smoke which usually means burning water/coolant), so he pulls over to try and check it out. After a while he tries to crank it, finally after about an hour it cranks and stays on but took a million tries. When the car is on, alot of white smoke comes out of the vent from the valve cover, and when he plugs the vent the smoke comes out of the exhaust. I want to say it’s the headgasket, but so far the mixture has not shown in the oil, doesn’t overheat, and for some reason the power is still there. The stock headgasket is good for about 400hp as well. Blown piston rings? Maybe but then you would prolly smell/see the oil level go down which it has, but still the power is there. He ran a compression test last night but didn’t do it while the car was warm so he got something like 60’s all across. Any suggestions please post…thanks for all your help.
