AK-Z Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 This question isn't on my datsun, but might as well ask. I took my turbo off my other car, and the turbine wheel appears orange. Does this I'm running lean, rich, or what? thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neotech84 Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Black is usually rich and white is lean. I think you are fine on the rust orange or maybe slightly lean. It should clean up with come carb cleaner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK-Z Posted June 24, 2010 Author Share Posted June 24, 2010 (edited) Sorry, this is on my genesis. like 9K miles on it. So, its pretty new. Its pretty orange. I've tuned it a bit. I've swapped it out for a WRX one, because the turbine fin angle on it are a bit more aggressive. Sorry, bit blurry.

kiwi303 Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Try looking at spark plug colour charts, I wouldn't be surprised to find a close correlation between spark and turbine colours for rich/lean etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK-Z Posted June 27, 2010 Author Share Posted June 27, 2010 (edited) found out what it was. I put octane booster in the tank, because of the craptastic "premium" grade gas that they have up here (90 oct is considered premium up here).
