ok so, ive got a 95 gsx. blew the turbo about 2 months ago. got a new one from this guy, managed to put it together last week. started it, everything was fine. running good, good aidle everything was fine. then i took it out for a ride, boost was good, bov was working everything was fine. (didnt take it over 4k rpm) so i parked it in the garage looked everything over and everything looked good. yet in the morning i open my garage and theres is oil under wut seemed the SMIC. i checked out everything and the oil wasnt leaking from anywhere. but then i noticed my bumper and headlight were drenched in oil. i looked at my blow of valve and it had oil in it. everything was soaked in oil from the blow off valve to the side. at first i didnt know what to think of it but then i researched it and as far as i know its probably the turbo seals. anything else that could be wrong with it? any simple solutions or will i have to go through the hastle of getting another turbo? 
well i took of my intercooler pipe and about half a quart of black oil ran out. (oil is brand new in engine and still nice and clear) so i took apart all the intercooler pipes intake pipes, bov everything and cleaned it all out as best i could. now i have left my intercooler to dry for a while because i used gas to wash the oil and gunk out. so probably gonna be ready to assemble tomorrow and see if the seals arent bad.
. I'm on my black berry so it might look bad as I'm writing. Do a boost leak test as well man.. God luck
