I have another block stripped and ready for forged internals, but i'm gona use a stock engine for now, cause i want to set up the suspension and figure out the car 1st. Would be very difficult setting up a 500hp engine with a completely untested suspension setup.

That turbo is the old one i had in my eg6. I replaced it with one the exact same. Oil seal trouble on the hot side from antilag.
Bought a new one, and fitted an uprated oil seal. There just like a piston ring on a shaft.

The turbo works perfect, just gets very embarrassing when a drop of oil leaks into the exhaust, and fills the place with blue smoke, cause it would burn up in the downpipe then. Using full power would immediately solve this, as this increases pressure in the exhaust, and would push seal against its housing, sealing again, temporarily.
