WTF happened to my car?!?! Loud top end noise?
Ok so attempted to install my turbo set-up this past weekend. Manifold was wrong, so I put everything back to stock. I never even unplugges the stock ECU before putting the stock stuff back on. CAS was never touched.
The only things I took off/ put back on were...
-Injectors
-Drained Oil (Topped off before attempting to start)
-All exhaust parts
-All intake parts
WTF could have happened here?!?! Is this just a crazy coincidence? I seriously doubt it... Any ideas?

Holy **** that's a fucked motor.
You sure you didn't remove the spark plugs and drop something in? Are you sure you reinstalled your oil drain plug? You can't **** up a motor by removing the exhaust and putting it back on. Was something dropped while the exhaust manifold was off?

It started normal yesterday but had a leaking Injector o ring. I replaced that today and at first it clicked like a dead battery would. Put a jump box on it and it still wouldn't turn over. I moved the crank with a breaker bar and the motor was free. Then I tried again and it started but ran like this.

But wait how did it start yesterday and run perfectly and quiet ?!?! Something not adding up. It started and ran normal it just had a leaking Injector. This morning I got new o rings, replaced them and put the injectors back in and bam... Noise.

Pulled plugs earlier but didn't see anything in the cylinders. My stock injectors still had all pieces in tact. My fic injectors still have all the pieces.... So I don't think I lost any Injector parts
The smoke is from penetrating oil burning off
