hello guys,
I have the GTM Stage 2 TT kit on my car. It ran good for not even a week and then it started smoking. I then figured that it was burning oil. correct me if I'm wrong but it makes me think it's a head gasket? now during all this I realized my hks ev6 boost controller would not read any positive pressure because I had a vacuum line pop off. my question is, could the engine have seen a higher pressure due to the boost controller not reading the correct pressure and trying to raise it? I am running 500whp at 12 psi with a GTM canned tune. I am not a master mechanic so i might be thinking in the wrong direction.
thanks
