Re:finally boosted but.......
detailed description of oil feed and return please.. pics are a bonus..
could be 1 of 3 things...
1. Seals took a crap
2. Oil pressure/volume is too much from large feed line
3. Oil drain is bottlenecking it all
or.. all or any combination of the above are possible.

Re:finally boosted but.......
ok, heres the good news!
compression test results
195 200 200 195
so i know its not the head gasket,
i also started up the car from cold and no smoke!, im guessing that when the oil warms up then it thins out and goes passed the seals?
i pulled the return hose off from the turbo and oil came out from the sump! so i'm guessing that the return is no good (not falling freely into the sump!)The return is welded as high as it can on the sump so what can be done? an extra smaller tank perhaps?
also gonna get a oil pressure gauge and test the pressure in the oil feed line.
How do i find out the correct oil pressure that is needed for my turbo?
And! is my turbo now any good or shall i just get a reconditioned one? have i ruined the seals by pushing the oil through them?
