Default The D stands for DONE!!

Driving the Turbo D to work yesterday, and smelled a little smoke, water temp was ok, no CEL, lots of oil...I didnt think much of it. A minute or two later, something let loose.......Car lost lots of power and was smoking white from everywhere. Stalled. I pull over, start it.....takes awhile, finally starts....something is DEFINETLY broke, I drive a little more, trying desperatly to make it to work less than 1 mile away.......No dice, Car died wont move. Tuesday I will be removing the Oil pan and seeing if there is a rod or 2 inside of it. Funny thing is...I wasnt in boost when this happened.......Im thinking the GReddy blue box just didnt give enough fuel and the motor just had enough and let go. Lets just say this might change the little plans I had for the civic.........














Or did it?

...and was smoking white from everywhere.

you didnt tell me that part. this helps a bit. something deffinately broke. there are two options IMO. either you blew the headgasket like crazy (not as likely) or you broke a rod/rod bolt/something and it shot into your block and caused coolant to leak into the cylinder. coolant burns white.
