Any glitter in the oil? Cut open the filter and check the media for metal flakes, although I doubt it did any damage in such a short time. Something similar happened to me a few years ago, my drain plug fell out and I only caught it because the idiot light came on........it was lucky
I strained the oil out, no large pieces of metal, just the typical fuzz that you get on breakin (engine still has less than 2000 miles.) It was only running for a few seconds. It didn't completely come off or anything, just loose enough to start spraying, so I would assume at least some of the oil pressure was getting to the engine.
God damn this car hates me. My oil feed line sprung a leak today. I should have known it was going to fail sooner or later it is the last piece of eBay bullshit left on the car lol. I ordered a nice one from atpturbo so the wagon is getting parked until that shows up.
He was trying to get me to race in crowded traffic on a side street so I led him onto the highway lol. He was cool about it though, gave me the thumbs up afterward haha
Over 10k views of my build, wow. Heres a tach video of me doing some spirited driving through some twisties. I don't rap it out until close to the end. Sorry I missed the downshift into second lol. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddQ4hsCnOhQ
I got a new 2.5in mandrel bent exhaust fabricated by Hanksville Hot Rods, a hot rod shop in Littleton, CO. It is beautiful, top quality work, so I thought you guys might like to take a look at it. Hanksville Hot Rods actually has a mandrel bender in house, the only shop in Colorado that I could find that had one. Also I slapped on some old school 3rd gen accord wheels.
How does the turbo wagon feel in the twisties? Also, I am wondering when does the car hit full boost? From the video I could not pick it up. I am guessing 3k rpm. Also, is the 2.5 exhaust noticebly louder?
It actually doesn't reach full boost (18psi) until about 4500 rpm. It feels really good in the twisties, I just installed a koni/gc setup in the car and I'm excited to feel the improvement

No more roof rack for me. Also, I stripped out the interior. Prepping it for a cage. Sacrilege, I know.
And jaudette, I know lol, I just said that because I'm sure a lot of members would be horrified at the idea of gutting a wagon. Haha
PM'd you man
Nope, I just bought this thing lol. I'm happy with the power the car has. Maybe someday I'll go to a gt30r with a divided housing and manifpld
