So the more and more Im trying to help this guy the more and more I see **** is goin on. My post ealier and now I took off the return line and its just about dry as a bone. He bought the kit used ..so what does this lead to ?

EDIT: The turbo never saw boost ..maybe 1 lbs but was driven.

 

Is the oil feed line flowing oil to the turbo, I would check that first.
If so, I would check the turbo itself for clogs though the center housing.

**weird if it is getting oil to the turbo and none out (you must have ran the engine with the drain line ran into another container) the drain. It must be blocked in the turbo somewhere**

Yes ..I disconnected it and oil was dripping out of the line ..The Return line also has a pretty good angle for gravity to take over .
