If there is oil blowing past the turbo seals sometimes, when oil pressure is high, then I would for sure say that we need to just upgrade the size of the oil drain line. Oil just isn't getting out of there quick enough with cold weather and thick oil and it is just backing up in the drain line all the way to the turbo and causing oil pressure to increase in the turbo past the point that the seals can handle. We can upgradge that fairly quickly. I'm sure the turbo is fine. And we'll just clean out whatever oil we can and that is all we really need to worry about. The little residue left over will just burn out and what not.

i'm not worried about the turbo anymore dude, i'm worried about the smoke puffing from my crankcase. i'll be less worried if the compression test comes back fine tomorrow.
