Message same problem after being rebuilt twice? still smokes from the passanger exhaust. Smoked after the first one, then after the second rebuild. The second rebuild was done w/ 360deg thrust bearing. I did a compression test just to make sure it was the turbo, and sure enough, I have excellent compression numbers.

1. 176,175
2. 165,165
3. 170,172
4. 167,167
5. 171,171
6. 167,167

Besides that, you could clearly see oil in the runner going to number 2, 4, and number 6. Those are fed from the passanger turbo. For the price of rebuilding, I could have amost got a new set from z1. What could be causing this same problem to reappear? Anything I could have done?
