Guys, John Urist called me today to discuss this. Wants me to try a couple of tune tweaks and blow off valves adjustments before doing anything to the O2 locations.

I hope to be able to do this over the weekend and let you know what I come up with.

Trying this to help all the Hellions owners, but it may be a combination of things from what we discussed.

More to follow.

Oh. And I am running the 42 pills and have zero issues with smoke.

But I am running Turbonetics turbos.

I have to call Hellion to see what size I have because the ones that came with the kit didnt fit. Im seeing white smoke like overbored but mines does it at idle too. Also smells oily a bit.

Hellion offers Turbonetic turbos as well? What size turbonetics do you run and why the changE?

Mine does it at idle also. Pretty good too. I was just saying that's how I can kinda tell that it's not just condensation from normal engine operation is because it will continue to smoke even after I shut it off for a good 15 seconds.

Agreed. Urist has answered questions for me just on boost controllers.
I enjoy talking to him and Jeff.

Just wanted to update this thread. Still working with John.

I have the car running great! No stalling issues or drop in RPM!

I will share the information when John wants me to, but I can tell you it does not need the O2 sensor placement changed.

I have confirmed this on my car and another as well. Same results.

I will update this as I know more.

Journal or ball bearing. If your running BB turbo you can go down to a .035 but if you run journal .065 is the lowest you should go. I don't want to see journal guys putting .042 in and ruining there turbos.

Not saying it's right but I've been in the 42s for about 5 months now. JB precision; are you saying I should change mine? I have the 35s sitting here waiting to be flow tested.

I am another one of the test mules on the new fix. I did only half of the suggested fixes and I cannot get my car to stall, no matter how hard I try. As 04sleeper stated... I will withhold info until John or 04sleeper want to spill the beans. Hint.... It's a 10 minute fix!!! Once again, thanks for Hellion never stopping on making this kit perfect.
