How long does it take to cover the floor like that ...I’m not running cats on my supercharged or turbo z and I get very little of that. Maybe you are running a bit rich

He should be still on the base map and that's very rich.

I ran on base tune for about month and had nothing like that ....not saying your not running rich cause most base tunes run rich to begin with ...could also be some condensation in the exhaust grabbing buildup in the pipe ...I wouldn’t think it to be anything to get alarmed over ....but I would plan on getting a custom tune...

On a worse case instance I would check the turbo and verify there isn’t any coolant leaking past the seals to the exhaust side ..I have read the one turbo had faulty seals and this happen

I am currently getting remote tuned with Seb @specialtyZ .. he confirmed that it’s something normal.. I was running for a week with only the base map from him until i sorted out my fuel pressure issue ( in tank leak .. sorted)

That picture is from few days back .. since then I gotten few update files and he started to add more boost.

Ill keep an eye on this for now if it continues ill do more digging

I've got the same "issue" as well. Haven't had no problems. Straight pipe from turbo back single exit.

Sorry Mike, missed the email. I replied now.

Thank you for the quick reply, Great service as always.

Anyone else have trouble looking our filters are from Buschur Racing 4" 20 degree custom on their site. I believe I paid 80+ last time.

Does anyone have any tips or good photos of how they kept the wastegate vacuum lines/transmission harness away from the turbo manifold? Pretty sure everything got rearranged when I brought my car to the shop to replace the clutch. I was going to buy a fire sleeve for the vacuum lines but I don't think 500* of protection will help with direct contact on the turbo manifold.

This is how I popped my motor. When I reinstalled I basically controlled the slack from where the line tees over the transmission. I have enough distance but I also used lava tube heat shielding but it does more to soothe my hurt feelings than anything. Up front from the engine bay its sleeved for about 3 ft. Sounds simple enough but following the install instructions to a tee saves some headaches. I found out 1 burned granny harness and one popped motor into the club. I like to call those "Stupid taxes". They're expensive but you won't pay twice. ( unless you're in the "Real stupid" bracket.

Use a ton of zip ties to keep everything out of the way. I used thermotec heat sleeve for all vacuum lines. I also header wrapped the turbo manifold to prevent those heat issues. Check my build thread link and there’s probably some pictures of the underside.
