My brother just bought a Turbo MR2 and he's has a few questions.
Here's his Email and Link to the pictures. He has an oil leak. I think it's a Gasket to the turbo oil line or possibly a cracked oil line.
Here's what he had to say:
It's not coming out the exhaust (although smoke does come out of the exhaust
between shifts while at WOT, just not under normal driving).
The oil is leaking onto the transmission. It is probably a seal.
Take a look at

images 0739-0745. They show images of where the oil is leaking onto.
I could DEFINATELY use advice for a turbo setup. Basically I want a
reliable mid-high 12 second car. I am thinking around 300whp, but more or
less depending on what will get me into the 12's consistantly.
But formost it must be useful on the autocross coarse and track days. It
should come on smooth and not need excessive spool time.
Also I know I will need a S-AFC soon. If you know of where I can get one
cheap, or if anyone is selling a used one, let me know.
