Replacements for 15g help!
 

Well I thought the smoke looked very white but I guess it was oil after all.

Changing the head gasket did nothing, so I felt the turbo up. about 1/16" or so of shaft play in and out. Pretty oil soaked in the charge pipes. I think she's done. Sad :(

Any ideas on places that sell rebuild kits for them? Or what kind of junkyard style replacements can I get to bolt right up to the GReddy kit?

well i found a site called turbocity.com

supposedly the part #310-200 is a mistu td04h rebuild kit.

think that'll work on a td04h-15g? Just wondering if the kit is the same for all the td04h's

Lightning has just struck my brain.

The place i located my oil return flange is up high on the pan and sits lined up with a main bolt on the girdle. It sticks into the oil pan a bit too, I wonder if it's too close to the girdle and restricting flow for the oil return.

anyone know the clearance between the girdle and the side of the oil pan, I checked it to make sure it didn't hit anything but never thought of that at all. And my turbo didn't smoke like this before I tore it down. hmmm....

Guess I better pull that pan off and check it out this weekend.

That would be a cheaper alternative to changing turbo's or doing a full rebuild.
