About a week ago I replaced my MBC with a different one and pulled my intake pipe off at the same time. My VC breather IS NOT routed back into the intake. There was oil in the pipe and a little bit on the bottom edge of the turbo inlet. I checked the shaft play and there didnt seem to be hardly any, it also spun freely. I cleaned out the intake pipe and such real good with carb cleaner.
Tonight I pulled my intake pipe off to check on it again, guess what, more oil in the intake pipe. Is my turbo on its last legs?
Also my T25 would hold 15psi solid almost all the way to redline up until about 3 weeks ago. Now It shoots up to 15-16psi, then falls off to 11-12psi within a couple seconds.
Another probly I suddenly have in the last few weeks is that whenever I hit full boost at WOT the car bucks a little bit like its missing, then goes.
Are these all signs of the T2small taking a crap?
I dotn have dsmlink yet or injectors so Im gonna have to stick with a relatively small turbo as a replacement for now. I would like to find a good used T28 especially since I just spend $70 on a T2small SS oil feed line
