Re: Bad turbo ?

Well, here's the deal. I had the car jacked up in the air today to change the oil and the bottom of the turbo had what looked like a sludgy oily residue on the bottom of the turbine housing. It wasn't dripping, but there was a pretty good layer of it. I didn't get any pics either and I wish I had. I guess I will be calling Hahn Racecraft tomorrow to get a price on a rebuild kit for it.

Seeing as how this turbo has been owned and abused by half of mitsustyle, I am going to asume it is the turbo and not the head gasket. Shit, at the very least this turbo could probably use a rebuild anyways just to freshen it up a bit.
