Well, I've got the oiling system taken apart again. Increasing the size of the everything on the scavenging side helped a lot, but still some smoke at WOT. I decided to put a check valve on the supply side to limit the oil pressure to 25 psi (I think I'm just pushing oil through the seals; once it's in the pipes it takes a while to burn out). In the process I broke the manifold SC2150 made me :facepalm:. I've got a local guy building a new one that will be a little easier to get on and off (two actually so SC2150 has a template). I should have that this Saturday, but may not get a chance to get it on until the following weekend.
I'm taking it one step at a time so I don't starve the turbos for oil. If this step doesn't work then I'll put smaller restrictors in (already have them), but I'll have to take the turbos off to do that. Hope it doesn't come to that.
Other than that, the car was still running well until my mistake. Charge temps are looking real good and the AFR looks to be just a little rich at the top end. It happens so quick that you barely see it on the wide-band and you hit another gear. I need to work on getting that gauge to feed into my logging tool, but that's further down the road.
