Message	well, few things...rings will need a good 500-1k miles on a fresh rebuild to really seat. try having mech do a compression test and leak down test after 500 mi to make sure engine internals are ok. you should try to not boost at all when breaking in an engine. If engien internals test ok after 500-1k break in and your still getting blue smoke then its time to troubleshoot the turbos. Keep a close eye on your oil consumption during break in. It would be fairly normal to go through ~1/2qt to 1qt of oil during a 1k break in on a newly rebuilt engine, but oil consumption should drop dramatically after break in period. 1990 Twin Turbo 5spd "BPU+" No Show,All GO 1999 Maxima SE 5spd ECZA member #0314 ..."If it doesnt make it faster, I dont care"...yellowZXTT
