Either way you probably need a restrictor so i would slap one on.Shitty news.

We have a lot of problems with this on VWs, you can't run a turbo without the restrictor (on them) it may not be too late....just don't run it anymore like that or you could do permanent damage....try the restrictor first

Here´s my oil drain: https://www.homemadeturbo.com/forum/...9619#msg629619

So now the turbo is being repaired, how small should be the restrictor hole? Doens´t the oil thickness mather?

I´m currently using 5w40 BP7000 sport oil, because it´s good and above all is free... Stock uses 15w40 Mobil super S, should i use recomended oil or thicker?

me too, i thought they were a 1.3 liter 3 cyl. turbo with a bill under the hood.

cool car anyway. i read most of the replies, maybe i didn't see, but what are those capable of power wise?
