Disaster :@ UPDATE

[biffobear]

i think the clue here is that it was "pulling like a train right up to the red line", so it sounds like an overboosting problem, which on a quite high milage ? turbo would be the last straw and would end up drawing the oil out the engine and dumping it out the exhaust, best bet would be to check the turbo bearings and seals, or fit the old parts and start again. Bear in mind that,when you start it up again you will still be burning oil again, and probably oiling up the spark plugs until the oil deposited in the cylinders and down the   exhaust will take a while to burn off, good luck.

Why risk either damaging a 2nd turbo with a map that doesn't suit or potentially buying a dodgy turbo? If you go ko3 at least your at a point where you know it should work.

Wise words...

Fit stuff you know was working... rule that side of things out...

....Exactly! Solving problems like these is a process of elimination.

Well Sammy How you getting on?

[apples12]

um....

was this car ever mapped correctly after having the injectors swapped over?... whilst it did still pull right to red line?....

perhaps try getting your old injectors fitted, see what happens then...

if that cures things/settles things.... get your injectors fitted, granny it or get it over on a flatbed over to a reputable mapping company and get the injectors mapped in properly...

[Sammy]

Well I have planned on changing out the turbo first to see what happens, I will update if that cures anything if not injectors will be changed back to normal and if not that then I am well screwed

Like I said before by fitting the S3 injecotrs the car would have been save to drive normally to get to a tuner as the B1S1 would work open loop and trim the injection to keep the lambda with in range.   I am still convinced its down to the turbo side of things, when I spoke to Sammy on the phone he did mention he had some good spirited runs under full boot..... what the full boost number was no body knows. 
 But put it this was I had a celtic tuning Stage 1 ED30 in the other day with an agressive N75 I-pilot map (like the K03 stage 2 tuned N75 maps) and his car was boosting to 29psi  it ease and making 408lbft.

If your going to add bigger turbo / injectors ect...  then just add a little common sense  before getting the car mapped.

I am quite convinced it is the turbo too and changing it out, will update once changed

Fingers crossed it works

Make sure you give it a good thrashing to be sure it's fixed
