okay when i got the restrictor into the t25 it solved the smoking issue for about a week...then the turbo seals started to go...cause blueish smoke everytime i'd hit boost...so i swapped out the t25 for another t25 and this one i had the oil restrictor in before i even boosted it for the first time...
i got it done in like an hour and a half last night and took it for a drive 30mins probably boosted fine..went to a buddies house came back boosted fine for like 5 mins then i gun it on the highway and it was building boost and it sounded like a pipe fell off (but it didnt fall off) and i couldn't boost no more...
the car drives fine but cant boost idles fine i think the turbo is blown..but no smoke either...could it be that im starving the turbo's of oil? even when the old turbo was smoking it boosted..what's up wid this one?
i took off the inlet to play wid the shaft and it does have a little bit of in and out play as well as side to side although the play isn't as bad as the old turbo....also when i spin the turbo blade it doesn't spin balence like how it should it looks as though the blade spins like it's drunk..a wobbly circle sorta thing...
sorry for the long post....but this is crazy i knew that going turbo you'd run into trouble but this is crazy 2 turbo in like a month? what's up wid that...
