Sickman Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Hi I’ve been a member for a while but have never introduced myself and have generally been poaching tec info from this site. However the time has come to ask a question. i have a 1995 uk Impreza. Had the engine rebuilt 2.1 stroker etc. it then sat around after a respray for about ten years. Last year I finally got a running in map and all was good. I was about to upgrade turbo sports cat and it started smoking under boast so I had a look and the intake has oil in it so I’m now fitting a catch can. ive looked at a million threads but cant find a picture. I’ve taken some breathers off near under the turbo and expected to see the psv valve but it’s just a copper looking pipe coming out of the crank case. im probably about to get spanked for being a noob and posting in the wrong place! cheers Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Wotcha and welcome - no problem posting here initially but to get increased visibility I would suggest starting a thread in the impreza section, also take photos as that can help with people supplying information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartie Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 If you have visable oil in the inlet i would get the oil seals in the turbo checked as it sounds like they could be on the way out although a catch can is a good idea, i've a v1 wrx and i'm running more than stock boost pressure and don't have a catch can fitted yet and have no smoke or oil in the inlet so if you already have the new turbo to fit i would maybe get that on and clean out the inlet and see how it goes from there 👍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
