Message	After A new rebuild, my oil pressure is over 90PSI while warming up, rests at 30PSI at idle after fully hot, but still shoots up well over 90PSI at boost, near 120psi! My turbos are now blowing out serious smoke and oil is dumping out of everything now. Looks like front main seal right now. I have oil in my upper plenum and everywhere. I have pressure reducers in my PCV lines and run 10-40. I have to pull the engine anyway, but how can I safely reduce my oil pressure? Ok use real thin oil? Getting ready to put on new JWT 550's and want this to be the last time I pull my engine. BTW>>>NEVER trust ebay rebuilt turbos.
