- I have a JDM 4agze block with a garret 2860rs turbo in a 1987 body.
The original owner built the setup but blew the motor. I just bought a JDM motor, turned down the boost to 12, and have been running it for the last 2 years. Lately Its been running rich which ended up being a cracked hose in the boost system. I fixed that and it ran great for awhile but then it started exhibiting the same symptoms. Smelled really rich like unburden gas. I was driving it home and going to check the lines
