My waste gate line came disconnected from my intake manifold so my waste gate never opened I guess? I saw my boost gauge just max all the way up all of a sudden and was like O ****, and saw my line had come off. Ever since then I'm leaking oil out of some where on the turbo. I pulled all the oil lines off and it doesn't seem like its coming from any of the lines, so I'm guessing I blew and internal seal. Does any one have a fische of the turbo or could tell me what I need to get to fix it.

the stock turbo is an R&R part; there is no repair.

I've had excellent service from Evergreen turbo since 1989. (800) 275-2531Speak to Charlie, he built me a good replacement/upgrade for my RB when the stock turbo went by-by
