Message Well I tried the Search button but it didn't give me what I was looking for. Yesterday I took the downpipes off my passenger turbo only (wasnt able to get the drives one off yet) and I am trying to figure out exactly how I can tell if the seal is going bad. I talked to Harry on the phone prior to removing the downpipe and he said that he believed there was a 90% chance they are ok. I had a little bit of smoke between gears when shifting but I dont think I had any at startup. I pulled the motor and found oil in the passenger side coils and spark plugs so I thought the problem with the smoke could be something besides the seals. The turbo has a little bit of carbon on its DP side but I can still see a LITTLE bit of silver on the fins, so I dont think it's too too bad.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Breece
