What a nerd. I wasted 9 minutes of my life watching that, I bet he wasted 9 days+ just filming himself and editting it for the sake of YouTube.

The way the weather is just now, I think I will be doing it in the snow

Im not entirely sure if it is my turbo now, yes, theres a fair bit of oil in the power pipe and coming out the dump valve, but it doesnt seem to smoke on boost?

Startup video shows more white smoke than anything

Cold startup :
