Default oil build up in ch??

just what the title says! I recently changed my bad valve seals, put the motor together today and installed it in the car todayand when i was hooking up my charge pipe i noticed a lil oil residue in the pipe and in the ch of the turbo. Could the oil be from the bad valve seals or does it sound like a blown turbo??

all the help needed, supposed to put down 400 whp and i cant wait too drive it

thanxs, guys

A little bit of oil is pretty normal.

Check your lower pipes though and your intercooler though, if there is a lot down there than your turbo definately needs a rebuild.

A few years back my compressor seal was leaking and my intercooler ended up having almost a half quart of oil in it. lol

If that's the case then you definately need a rebuild.
