nah ... this is what stupid looks like...
retarded timing, mixture unknown but thought to be slightly lean, very cool ambient air temps, cruising only, thermo fan switch not turning on:
when we first popped the bonnet the entire exhaust/turbo manifold was red hot - you can still see some glow from the centre exit (siamesed pipes for ports 2 & 3).
it must have been over 600 centigrade as the heat wrap on the piping had melted:
ohhh... jsut below all this red hot metal was oil pooling around the lip of the wastegate (from leak in turbo oil drain hose). you can see the smoke stains on the round flange that it mounts to on the second pic.
i figure we were only minutes away from a very expensive engine-bay fire.
