    Should check to see if that spring is really a 7.5 psi spring.

    I agree and I will be doing some kind of fuel management in the future plus I definitely want to use a PnP harness just not sure what type. As far as the low idle on startup that happened after changing the original IAC because it was leaking air of all things. I just wonder if there is some way I’m supposed to adjust the fast idle

    Next thing I can recommend is not a good one, but necessary. Pull the turbo out of the turbine housing. Make sure the turbine impeller is good.

    2rz and 3rz have no idle adjustment it is all controlled by the IAC which is controlled by the ECU.

    Would it possibly have been bad from the factory? Or when i had to little flow on my oil return could that have damaged it (when i was blowin oil out my tail pipe, and have since found a little in the cold pipe... So i guess i shouldnt have to worry about rust) what will i be looking for? Im prolly gonna try and add a 1.5 lb spring to the wg first and see if it will build more boost or if i am just leaking somewhere i cant find

    I have usually disregarded this because it is usually after a short drive where the engine barely got warmed up when i saw it, but this is after a 30 min drive home after work... Do i have headgasket issues?
    20180122_164004.jpg no noticable driving effects to speak of; is there anything else i would notice with HG?

    hard to tell on White smoke because its been right at freezing for the last 3 weeks, and would the oil be visible in the overflow of the radiator if present?

    it'll float on top so should see it just by popping the rad cap and looking...before you've driven that is or run the motor. It'll be an off white blue smoke and it'll be that way the whole time whether or not its cold out.

    Look in the overflow. If there is oil, it will be on there and easy to spot.

    I believe yours is primarily your weather conditions.

    Ill check before i leave tomorrow on the rad cap, i didnt see any in the overflow so maybe its fine. I have the same residue in my catch can lines too but i guess that makes sense because its all crank case.
