Default Spitting oil??? What the deal?

I have oil comoing out of my compresser wheel and also a coating of oil in my charge piping. Does this mean my seals are bad or could it be somthing else.?

before you do a rebuild, try an oil restrictor, its about $10 and solves LOTS of people problems.

use a nitrous jet for the restrictor. drill it out to 3/32 and you are set.

I'm running the oil line that came with the turbo kit. Would i still need a restictor? What PSI should the oil be at the turbo?

Yes the oil feed line that came in your kit is quite possibly to much pressure for your turbo. Even with my rebuilt T3 with an oil restrictor I still found oil in the charge pipes. A film, not like any puddles.

Just get a restrictor and turn it down.
