Turbo's Leaking??

I am pretty sure my stock twins are leaking internaly.....Does this cause much of a probelm?? It not to bad but I gues the seals inside are weak. It shows up a little on the intake and elbow, and also on the floor to. What should I do and is it going to hurt anything??? Just had a full rebuild and street port also. I am new at the RX 7 thing......but love the car. Thanks for the feedback and help

where is it leaking from exactly?

and if it were the turbos you should get alot of smoke.

some oil in the intake and elbow is normal and you should get a catch can.
but on the ground is a different ballgame.

What made you think your turbo's were leaking in the first place? It's good to hear that your turbo's are ok, but finding oil on the ground is something you should look further into and find the source of your real problem.
