i am rebuilding my ca at the moment coz i think the rings were gone(had like 1lt of oil come out of intercooler) haha. anyway i got myself some Aries 40 over forged pistons today and going to get it all done by someone else coz i dont want to **** it..

so far im going with

bore out 40 thou with Aries forged 80thou coperhead port the head and polish Exhaust ports o ring block and head new bearings check cam and crank

what else sound i do ?

I'd suggest making sure you're not blowing oil out of the turbo. You may have a bad seal in there. Don't know that it's necessary to o-ring the head, with a copper gasket o-ringing the block should be all you need.

See about getting your rods shot peened. How about improving your cams, either aftermarket or custom regrind, nothing too radical but with the extra displacement some extra lift/duration would work well.

There's so much more you can do, depends on your budget.

yeah doin the turbo as well but i think it was blow bi

[Myetball]

I'd bet it's a bad turbo seal. I don't see how blow by would make it all the way down to the intercooler. Unless you have the motor already torn down do a compression check.

well its out and got pistons so doin rebuild anyway... goin to rebuild and hi flow the T28 on it as well.. i think coz the oil was coming from the top of rock cover down the tube back to the intake

sounds good so far but i agree with myetball, some cams and getting the rods shot peened would be a good idea. with all that extra displacement, some good cams would help make better use of it. do the rods while theyre out in case you decide to make lots more power and need a stronger bottom end. may want to get the whole thing balanced and blueprinted while youre at it, you know, just to seal the deal.

yea, I hate to tell you, but just because you had oil in your intercooler, doesn't mean your rings were bad. I have oil in my intercooler as we speak, but it's from the bad seals on my crappy stock T25 that I'm running w/no BOV, cuz I'm a broke azz mofo...

[S12-Scooter]

i had a leak test done and they said it was rings.... i had to coming out the rocket cover down the pipe bck into the intake into the turbo and yeah the seals are prob fuced too..

[float_6969]

Well if they check the compression and said it was the rings, then they were probabaly right.
