You can't just "overhaul" a turbo. It has to be rebuilt and balanced. There are a couple places to get it rebuilt, turbochargers.com I think does it. cheapturbo.com does as well.

Rep Power: 0 rebuilding turbos is kinda expensive, but i definatley say you're seals are shot, check your charge piping and see if you have oil in there and that'll let you know. But as 4drcivic2k1 said...check those sites for reuilds, good luck

Rep Power: 0 NO i used a new oil pan i it has a little to much oil, but the turbo is dripping fromwhere you attach the downpipe to the turbo, so it still may be that i have to much oil...
and i don't think i can get Brakleen localy, would any kind of degreaser work.....
Oh, and if the return line was a little bent could that cause smoke also???

Rep Power: 312 The return line has to ALWAYS go down hill and cannot be kinked.
With the new oil pan, was the drain all the way at the top of the pan?
And just about any degreaser would work. Carb cleaner would also work.

Rep Power: 0 it could be both of those...when you're car goes over 3psi does it flutter back n forth between psi? definately check your turbo though since its dripping oil, even if it means taking it apart, just be careful with the turbine, was size line are you using on the feed line?

Rep Power: 0 i dont know the size, but its the one SF provides with the kit.........
Yes he car fluters back n forth between psi, and only on WOT will it go past that but not by very much.....
And what vaccum reading does everyone get on idle.........
