well yesterday just driving around not even in boost only like 5 psi when it came out of boost i looked back and it looked like i was fogging for masquitoes. i think the stocker went down? but it still makes the same boost and all psi levels in motor are all the same so i don’t think it is a ring. i really have no idea because there is no shaftplay in the stocker at all? ---

it’ll smoke like hell at idle and when pulling out if you fried the turbo. Take off your downpipe/ 02 housing. If there is oil in it then the turbo is kicked, that is if all 4 cylinder pass the compression check. My car blew more oil when the turbo died then when I burnt a piston. ---

is there a bunch of oil residue in your exhaust tip? (like a lot) My old GS-T did the same thing when the stock turbo popped. ---
