Default Need HELP??? Remote mount turbo leaking oil out exhaust?

I have a remote mount T4 GT45 turbo on my C5 and I had a oil leak out the turbo when i first put it on, and then found out the return pump was to small so I put a Shurflo 8000 pump that is good for 120 gph and it stopped the leak for about 2 weeks then all of a sudden one day it started leaking again. Ive checked and the pump seems to be working ok, ive put a check valve in the return line to make sure it wasnt leaking back into the turbo when i cut it off and still no fix, im confused please give me some ideas or Help please. Thanks, Josh.


i have 40 psi oil pressure, and i have also put a nitrous jet in the feed line to restrict the oil.

Are you sure it's oil? I've heard of water leaking from the exhaust of rear mount turbos, and they say it's 100% harmless.
