Some oil issues...
So I recently put a new turbo in my car, a hyrbid T04 from Nelson Siverio. I've had it in for about 3 weeks now and I notice that oil pools on the turbo inlet, maybe a teaspoons worth everytime I take the TID off. The car started smoking recently when I got on it, so I figured it was possibly blow-by, and removed the oil cap and proceeded to drive around for a little bit.
The smoking gradually went away, or at least dissapaited to the point that I can't tell it's there. I don't have the breather line plugged into my TID currently as I just made a custom one, I'm thinking that's causing the smoking? But I still don't know how the oil gets into the compressor housing and pools on the inlet, that just baffles me. Any help would be great!
Thanks guys!
