Normally if there is a oil residue in the exhaust from the turbo it takes a while to burn out. if it doesn't come from a different source.
So drove about 10 km, she is still smoking, removed plugs, no sign of oil burning. The misfire i had on cylinder #3, is now gone. So will drive it some more and see what she does. Have not pushed her yet bit can hear the spooling of the turbo's a bit louder than with the XM cores . Glad i did the swop, clearly had damage on the one turbo. Time will tell.

It makes sense, did go through this rodeo before and smoke was gone , it did not take a while. I gambled doing the snails first, i was lucky to find diffrent damage to one of them and it solved a misfire issue that have been hunted for quite some time now.

solving a misfire issue is a very satisfying situation.

The turbo solved a missfire issue?
