small amount of oil in charge pipes?
 
k i blew a charge pipe 3 times yesterday and when i was hooking them back up to the turbo...they had small amounts of oil in them? what is this from? its the charge pipes closest to the compressor housing...on up toward the IM there is no oil? what is going on?

your turbo seals could be on their way out.

just make sure its getting oil but not too much (try hooking up a pressure gauge)...im sure its fine if its not dumping a ton of oil in there. check your return line too, it may be too small or backing up
