If you can move the piston ring in and out on the shaft even slightly, that's gonna be a leaker for sure.

Yes, if with a 1/16" restrictor and a proper ½" drain you still have oil leakage problem, you can send your turbo to us. We rebuild it for only 125$ and after that it looks and performs like a new one and is covered with a 6 months warranty.

You mean? plugging the internal wastegate hole in the turbine ?
It doesn't involve welding at all!
Just a block off flange does the trick for 25$ !

That is a really good deal on a rebuild compared to the $250 norm.

I realize that, just I never see you post all that often. I was only joking.
