I had a turbo leaking however, it was on the exhaust side. So not ingesting oil. That was replaced by the PTE's This car has smoked from day 1. Was using up to 1/2 qt oil every fill up. I finally had enough.
Tiago, tho old turbos were leaking. The new ones are not yet the motor is still smoking and consuming oil worse.
Leak down on yielded 10% on #7 and 15% on #2. In my experience that has not been enough on its own to yank a motor. With the massive oil consumption and smoking is why I am pulling it.

did a leak down That bank was good. I added new pics o the drivers side up top. Looks like all of them are oil soaked.
I am using a gravity system on the turbos with -10 returns and restrictors are built in to the 62-65s. Ive checked the returns and had no blockage
Anyone suggest some good rings for a 3.905 bore
