had a t04... hated it... blew the oil seal on the exhaust side. threw it in the trash

got a gt35r in mid april... loved it 1000 miles maybe, blew the oil seal on the compressor side yes its water cooled, yes the drain is good, oil from stock location

Steve Khan SP 3mil ceramic engine, 90 psi oil, premix and mobile 1 15w50
Only at 10 psi so far
so am I just having bad luck ? did i miss a memo?

Thanks everyone!

Oh one auto x pratice in the books

 

If you do not use the oil pressure REDUCER that screws into the turbo oil inlet, you can have too much oil pressure. This comes with an A-Spec kit.

Most likely you do not have one, that is why you blew two oil seals on two turbos.

Where in Houston do you live? I live near 59 SW FRW and Beltway 8.

 

both had reducers...

My shop is off of hempsted and north post oak (610 and I-10 ish).
