Oil in Compressor
Ok well it seems I have some oil on the compressor side of the turbo... a decent amount too...
DO I definately need a rebuild and what caused it... too high oil pressue (I have a ball valve thats set close to closed)
The return line is not greater then 30*
Could compressor surge (BOV doesnt open too well... its getting replaced) be forcing the oil out or is my turbo just in need of a rebuild... any suggestions?
T3 .48/.60 btw water/oil cooled

Re: Oil in Compressor
I cant remember if the drain line is 1/2" or 5/8" (Same size as stealthmode since I bought his kit)
Yeah I purchased a new restrictor with the little .020" hole in it... but not that oil is getting by am I too late.. rebuild no matter what....
Im going to try cleaning it off and putting the new restrictor in and not letting it surge until the new BOV goes in and see what happens...
But if I need a rebuld no matter what Ill ship the sucker off somewhere to get it done.
