1320 Performance TURBO SUMP RESTRICTOR Blue Smoke Fix 15-21 WRX 14-18 Forester XT
If you have a 2015+ WRX with the new FA20DIT engine in it, you may notice
that on start up the vehicle has a bit of smoke coming out of the
exhaust and smells like burning oil. This is a common problem on
modified WRX, but we have a simple, easy-to-install solution that
eliminates this problem. Introducing 1320 Turbo Sump Restrictor
Many customers experience a burning oil problem or blue smoke coming
from their exhaust after installing aftermarket J-Pipes or turbo-back
exhaust systems. Installing these parts on 2015+ WRX’s causes a change in
the exhaust pressure, allowing engine oil to escape out of the turbo
seals. This leaks into the exhaust creating the burning oil smell and
blue smoke that many people see. Cars with catless J-pipe setups
experience this issue much more than cars with high-flow cats.
The 1320 Turbo Sump Restrictor makes the turbo sump pump more effective
at sucking oil out of the turbo sump. This in turn creates a slight
vacuum on the turbo sump creating a proper balance of exhaust pressure
and vacuum on the turbo seals, significantly reducing the amount of
leaking around the turbo seals. This does not change the oil flow to the
turbo in any way.
The installation is simple. Owners of the 1320 Turbo Sump Restrictor only
need to make a small cut in the turbo sump vent hose located at the
front of the engine, remove 1/2″ of hose, insert the Turbo Sump
Restrictor and that’s it! installation can be done in as
little as 15 minutes! the Turbo Sump Restrictor is a very easy installation (Please check picture for install instruction)
