Usually on a ball bearing turbo you use a restrictor in the turbos oil inlet, but this turbo is a journal bearing so full flow should be fine.HOTT wrote:Well there you go..irishcarbomb wrote: The turbo oil seals aren't meant to hold pressure, if it backs up the oil will leak past and it'll smoke like crazy.
