420Coupes R18 241 whp / 231 wtq @ 7.6 lbs
So turbo smoking and I'm at half oil, any ideas what this can be besides blown seals ?
Still building boost it was after driving pretty hard temps where normal about half way. Now when I stopped I noticed it smoking but no leaks and it's the hot side smoking not cold side? I'm thinking I'm low on oil and it's hitting to high a temp yet the temp gauge isn't reading high

It's the seals at the bottom of the turbo near the return it leaks but very little amount. It was smoking cause blanket was soaking it up and smoking. Stopped as soon as I removed the blanket. Still leaking but ~300 miles and dipstick hadn't moved down. So it's barely dripping but still dripping need to get it rebuilt or new seals rather.

And we're just starting! we had a successful start to testing on the VitTuned Honda Civic R18 running our custom VitTuned MoTec M150 firmware package. The fuel system couldn't keep up and I had to cut the testing short, but everything went very smooth otherwise -- made 410hp & 330tq on 22psi of boost using an old PTE 5757 turbocharger (with a 2.5" downpipe at that).
The MoTeC firmware package we've developed brings a lot to what has been an otherwise neglected platform -- anti lag, closed loop boost control, boost by gear, closed loop lambda control w/ an LSU 4.9 wideband sensor (accurate even for full time closed loop in boost!), launch control, traction control, flat foot shift, rolling antilag... the list of features just goes on! We'll be demoing some of the features after we get the fuel system upgraded to handle big power on this platform.
When an R18 sounds more savage than your K series.
