You were right. Put oil in it last night and drove it and it smoked a little. Drove it home today and no oil used and not a single trail of smoke. I think it built up mad pressure and started pushing out of the compressor and the exhaust and then it just was the exhaust burning off all of the excess oil. It runs perfect, boosts fine, Vaccums REALLY well (actually a few marks higher around 22mmHg now), and doesn't smoke at all. So it seems as though it was just a PVC issue and thanks to you all I was able to vent to the atmosphere and save my turbo. Still lucky I pushed all that oil out of the turbo and never blew the seals. God blesses me.


I got your PM Blaast and I was just going to send you my stuff and not do the turbo swap and then refund as we discussed before. To be honest I'm going to look it over really hard this weekend and hopefully it's not needing that rebuild quite yet. Thanks for all your service, but for now, it is all okay and on hold.

EDIT:
Compression test...
