As to why you were able to replace it with a brand new turbo and it still happened is due to the fact that there is OIL in your charge piping, intake manifold, and combustion chamber. No matter how many turbos you swap in, it is going to take a while for all of that ---- to go away without you taking it all apart and CLEANING it before you swap in a different turbo to test it. Have a nice day |
Re: 10lbs too much for stock B16a2?
look how low ur return line is...you're suppose to put it as close to the top of the pan as you can so it'll 'drain' into the pan...you have it like at the bottom of the pan where all the oil is at...so instead of the oil draining its building up in the line until the line is completely full then the oil just gets stuck in the turbo...then builds up in the turbo...then when the turbo gets full the oil needs somewhere to go........lol....me< :1

I aree with Darkelvis. There is no other way for oil to get into the cold side piping except from the bearing housing seals...OR if you poured in oil which i know you wouldn't do ;)

Re: 10lbs too much for stock B16a2?
raise the oil pan bung and you'll stop going through turbos

Re: 10lbs too much for stock B16a2?
alright i guess lesson learned. this was my first turbo build i did by myself so i wasnt aware of every detail. i think what im going to do is slap a header back on it and drive it stock for awhile, sell my manifold and buy a new one, new turbo, and then put it all back together later on down the road. thanks for everybodies help!!!
oh btw...no oil in the intake manifold or anywhere else...nothing really got to the opposite side. |
