[hediki12]

ok im rebuilding the turbo.. (its realy pissing me off bearings seem stuck) but back to the point on the hot side there is a semi cicular "crack that allows me to see the oil drain now is that normal? i thought that it mit be an oil "overflow"drain to the main return then i thought that that oil would be inderect contact with the hot side ... does that mean the turbo is done for? if it is ill be very very very pissed...
