OMG turbo oil leak !

[Phalanx99]

My 60 trim is leaking oil through the gap between turbo housing and compressor housing. Any idea how to stop the leak ? Will there be any big problem if I keep running with this leak ?
advice please

You probably blew the oil seals.
Besides the turbo running like crap, I bet your sucking a lot of oil up into your intake.
Sounds like it's time to rebuild that turbo.

Oh shit !
Do you know where can I have my turbo rebuilt ? And how much does it cost ?
Thanks for your information

Oh, I tested the outlet of the turbo and there is no sign of oil. The oil is just leaking on the turbo housing side. Is it still a big problem ?

Sounds like you just have a leak on the oil feed. What kind of set-up do you have? AN lines? Stock-style?

Just re-check the flanges and RTV if necessary. You could also change the crush washers.

I have AN fitting. I dont think it is just the leak from the oil feed line because I can see the smoke coming out from my tail wastegate tube ( when I didn't put the wastegate on yet ).
I wonder if I can just order a new gasket and replace it by myself ?
