You got ur turbo rebuilt and its still blowing oil? If thats the case you gotta send it back.
No boost = leak. -------------------- |

It wasn't your turbo in the first place, it was crankcase vent vapour coming from the port on the top of the cam cover. Its a common problem among 3sgte's. Get an oil catch can, that should solve that problem.
How did you adjust the boost? With a controller/bleed valve or by playing around with actual wastegate. If you moved the actual wastegate you may have broken the diaphram or the circlip that holds the shaft to the flap may have come loose and fallen off. Check the shaft and flap on the back side close to the block. |

with the ST turbo's.. u will continue to eat turbos until u guys get some in line restictors...
and if u go n/a and its still smoking, my bet is a piston landring is chipped, anyother piston problem, or valve seals.... the 7a pcv system isnt made for boost either, it actually loads the crank case with pressure (BAD)... the hose's and connect to the manifold need vac. to be useful, the one with the pcv valve is okay to be there when boosted b/c it wont let the boost in, but the other line will which is what is loading up the oil in the crank case.. pushing it god knows wehere inside the motor.... so long story short, that other line needs to go between the turbo inlet and the air filter so it has constant vac. pressure. |
