I have an 97' RS I recently installed a turbo kit. T3/T4 turbo that is blowing oil out the exhaust side of the turbo. Does anyone know what this is caused by or how to fix it? Thanks for the advice.:)
 
Well sounds like the seals could have gone bad. Do some more research, and also where at on the hot side it is coming from exactly. Could the oil supply line or drain line be leaking?
 
Yea that's what I was thinking, were the seals. It's coming from the exhaust out side of the turbo, where the down pipe goes out. It's not leaking from the oil line anymore. I fixed that problem, also the turbo gets really hot if ran for 5 mins. Any ideas on that? It could be one in the same problem. Thanks
 
No I paid $1000 for the kit off JDM Sports. I must of blew out a seal because it was good when i first put it on.
