When i'm pressure testing the turbos off the engine, air is being leaked out of the compressor side of the turbo to the center section and out of the oil feed and drain lines. There are restrictors built in to your SS lines and I know that they are quite small, but I'm not sure what the measurement is on them. Of the small number of people I asked, it seems that it is possible that these are blown as air is not suppose to leak out from the compressor side of the turbo. That said, I don't really know enough about these turbos to know if this is normal or not under the circumstances. For testing, I have the rubber accordion hose blocked at one end, the pcv pipe is oplugged, turbo outlet is also plugged and i'm using one of the smaller nipples, a pressure gauge and an air compressor to pressurize the system. Starting around 10 psi or so, air can be heard and felt coming out of the oil inlet and drain tubes.
