Experienced that little smoke tonight, it was gone soon after starting her up.

I think this can be solved by mounting a check valve in the system. So far i cant be bothered to do so though.

Just curious but before you put the pump did you have a catch can or were you using the stock PCV setup while seeing smoke?

Vent to atmosphere

clamp a 3/8 fuel rated hose to the pcv, drape it over the charge pipe (on each side) and down that little gap in the wheel well. zip tie to an anchor point and run it down to where you can lightly tie it off at the subframe. as for the CCV, its your choice. you can catch can it ( i havent caught anything from the CCV as of yet) or add a filter at the CCV and a filter at the intake PCV take off for extra intake capacity.

the pcv is not the problem at all..

im yet another with a pool of oil (mine being on the passenger side).

ive considered adding a drain plug to the charge pipe down near the IC...

others i know with the aam kit seem to sing the same song...

i might look into a scavenge pump. Its annoying that you spend a good amount of money for a lack-luster product

I know, it's really frustrating. Also AAM doesnt help you in this at all and comes with some BS story about reclocking the turbos. Whilst the turbo drain design is just bad.

Put a pump in, it was about 1k and 1 day of work but all the smoking is over. My intakes are dry too

It's my understanding that this is a common problem with low mount turbos. With the turbos mounted low - the oil return line from the turbo to the oil pan doesn't have enough downward angle to allow gravity to do it's thing - thusly, the oil backs up into the turbo and then produces that smoke as it exits the engine via the exhaust.
Turbos mounted higher than the oil pan return don't have this problem.

:iagree:

That's why Sasha did the Exa pump setup with the initial BP kits. All it takes to appreciate what that thing does is to run the car with the wiring from the Exapump jacked up. You have a whole new appreciation after flushing oil from your intercooler then having to drive around with a smoke stack till the oil burns out of your exhaust.

You be a crop dustin'. :rofl2:

It was way worse. Looked like an LAV on the beach poppin smoke. Seriously.....actually got pulled over......in Florida ( No inspections ) ...for smoke.

I did the scavenge pump fix as well …

I never resolved this issue. I’m having my motor reworked by Dynosty, so I’m waiting on that to come back. I’m strongly considering selling my AAM kit and going back to the BP kit for simplicity’s sake. Since the turbo system is completely out now anyway it will be easier to swap out now.

Why don't you get a Fast Intentions TT kit? Ten times better than both of those.

:gtfo2: AAM and BP do not belong in the same category ever. AAM products are shìt. The BP kit is solid. Don't hate.

The GT-R turbo kit husam just put out is looking pretty solid as well.


That's not to say that FI isn't the cream of the crop. But if FI is 10X better than BP, then FI is a trillion times better than AAM.
