Message So, I have oil in places I shouldn't have oil. And I now have some questions which hopefully someone can answer.

First question.

Can the turbo seals be replaced on the HKS2530 BB turbos? (If anyone knows where to order seals, etc. This is helpful)

Is this a valid test? [here is what I have done]

Took the turbo apart and took the oil feed line off the block.

The return line is off.

The oil feed line is connected.

Blew on the oil feed line which plugging the oil return hole with finger.

I can hear bubbling or air passing through what I would presume are both seals.

I also presume I shouldn't be able to do this.

Oil in exhaust downpipe, and oil on the other side.

So clearly I suspect turbo seals are done as I have no idea how oil could have gotten into these places any other way. Not possible.

Before I really take this shit apart, I was seeking some advice as best way to proceed or if the best way to proceed is to call Greg and get a SZ-EXP90 Turbo Kit.
