ok so i just bought a 95 eagle talon with a blown turbo
so i deside to put a 16g turbo in it so im almost done and then i take off the licp and there was a shit ton of oil in it. is that because the turbo was blown and was just pushing oil though. yes it does have a oil filter from the intake to the valve cover. im just wondering what i should do and do you think it caused any damage
 
I would imagine that it's probably just oil from the old turbo that sat in the bottom of the pipe. There's probably some in the intercooler too, might wanna clean that out. Or, have you driven the car with the 16g? If not, I'd say clean everything out really well let it dry out and take the car for a spin and reinspect with the new turbo. If it's new oil from since you put on the 16g then... ruh roh.:talon:
 
ok thanks no the car is still in pieces putting it back together so i should be ready in a day or two
