Ive just hooked up the t3 skyline turbo i purchased. The oil feed line is tee'd in with the oil pressure sender, Oil outlet is piped to the sump plug (temporary). On start up it blew a cloud of blue smoke and oil started dripping out of turbing outlet flange (piece that joins the turbo to the exhaust system). When i reved it more oil came out and a WHOLE lot more white/blue smoke .

what would be causing it to do this?Should i get it swapped or a refund?Have i connected it incorrectly?

Any insight would be awesome.

Excessive shaft play, your turbo is blown, and needs a rebuild

If your turbo is dumping oil out of the exhaust housing that bad your seals are non existent. Get a refund...
