paul w Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 Fitted the decat and apexi exhaust from the breaker today,had a blown turbo on it before throwing oil down the exhaust,so expected a bit of smoke,also used some exhaust paste on the rear silencer join and the car is smoking like a bitch now!How long does this crap take to burn off from inside the exhaust?

keirz Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 could be a while mate. my cousin was gonna put some in mine for a practical joke. think he said it would smoke for a few weeks but i could be wrong. Quote
paul w Posted July 14, 2007 Author Posted July 14, 2007 ARSE!Cheers guys,i thought it would be a while,i pity the poor buggers behind me because it stinks and is pretty thick smoke Quote
Glanza_Ragger Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 when i fitted my hybrid, it smoked constantly for about 3 days. Pure comedy driving through town with smoke pouring out the bonnet vent. just let it idle till the smoke stops comming off, then give it a gentle drive to burn any oils off like a scene out of wacky racers Quote
paul w Posted July 15, 2007 Author Posted July 15, 2007 It has been fine till i fitted the exhaust and decat so i think it's just burning off some oil from when it had the blown turbo on it.It's stupidly thick smoke at times. Quote
gaz Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 If it dont clear up after a week of good use. Then you can worry Quote
paul w Posted July 15, 2007 Author Posted July 15, 2007 LOL,trouble is i only use it at weekends at the mo because i got a van for work! Gonna have to have some good thrashes at the weekends to make up for it Quote
