Default turbo oil seals...

My car is starting to blow oil past the seals, ive found drops of oil in my charge pipes. Question is, whats the worst case that can happen before i get it replaced or repaired?

oil lowers the octane leves and can cause the motor to knock much sooner. (IF, its so bad that its being burnt in the chambers.)

You should try getting a oil restrictor and maybe a rebuild kit for it. Would cost a lot less then a new turbo.
