oil in pipes help
 

ok so i took apart some of my charge pipes, and took the IC off for polishing nd painting a couple things for a car show tomorrow. ok. lol so, there was like a cup of oil in the intake side of the pipes, going to the IC and from IC to CAI, there was oil in the pipe i used for the filter to the compressor in on the turbo ad all over the turbine..on the coldside. so... lol does this mean the seals are shot and the turboneeds a rebuild? the turbo is supposily new...and i just used stealthmode oil lines...so did i do anything wrong to make the seals go out pre-maturely?

the onlyother thing there is some oil residue on the oil feed both sides into the turbo, and im not running water to the turbo, so it wouldnt matter if the water holes werent plgged and the oil got through there into the turbo, this couldnt be causing it could it?

14b turbo "new"
stealthmode oil lines
dsm 450's
vafc
jrc 5" IC
turbox's bov

any help would be great thanks guys.

oil went past ur seals and probably need replacing
always put the return line high up on the pan and a restrictor valve help greatly with a stealth kit sometimes

ok..um...is replacing seals a big deal? like i tought that ws like rebuilding it, but mabe not. and where can i get a restrictor valve. thanks for your quick response.

stealth has the restrictor valve thingy
maybe if u get a return line thats bigger in size that may help also

sometimes when u get the restrictor the smoking stops so it saves u the trouble of changing ur turbos seals

the oil pressure going in might be too high so the restrictor valve will help. also, an oil pressure guage after the valve would be beneficial.
