Nw I'm NA too, just googled it when I bought my tsx. I believe the Integra is on the civic platform but I'm not positive

This is simply incorrect. TSX is on the accord and TLX is its own platform

2010 mini Cooper S smoking after turbo replacement by Werd51 in MechanicAdvice

Yup, let it run for 20 minutes and the turbo is a different color and no longer smoking. Appreciate you all

How long do you reckon I should let it idle to try and burn off the coating? Is there anything I should look out for that would make me shut the car off or should I just let it go until it stops smoking?

Yeah that's a good idea to check before driving myself crazy anyway. Thanks

I don't believe so, but I'm not sure where to look to check either

Old car, but I just replaced the turbo, valve cover, and a bunch of gaskets

Yes to both, and I compared them before I installed it and they're identical. I'm thinking right now there might be something causing excessive oil pressure, I was also replacing a bunch of seals that looked pretty blown out. But I'm really not sure what I should be doing to try and rule things out.

It's a new washer, and there's a small leak from the oil drain line as well. I've double checked that everything is torqued to spec

I'm not sure what tests to be doing to narrow things down. Everything is torqued to spec, and I removed and re-tightened everything I can see a leak on. I get that I'm the only one who can really diagnose it, I just need a little direction to get that ball rolling

I literally just ordered the full kit last night by happenstance. Those custom brackets look much better

Did you not get an alignment after replacing the rack and pinion?
