Oil Issue on turbo.. need help
Oil Issue on turbo.. need help alright guys i need a little help here. i just finally was able to start my car for the first time since putting the turbo on and its leaking oil from where you can loosen the bolts and clock the cold side of the turbo. it is only coming out of there, isnt getting into the exhaust just there. the turbo is a bullseye s362. bought it brand new so its never been used before me.
it has a -4 feed line with no restrictor in it. the drain looks good all except this one spot right where it goes into the pan.. here is a picture.. does this look like it could be backing up there and not draining back into the tank well enough???
this is at a slight angle so it looks a little worse then it actually is
im quite new to this whole turbo stuff sooo any help will be greatly appreciated

How big is your drain line? It should be as straight down as possibly and no less than a -10AN. Can you give us a shot of the overall set-up. If you are not getting any smoke then I believe it is draining sufficiently. Your connection in the area of the leak may be an issue. Also, how high is your oil? Is it possible you filled it too high and it is over our drain?

the drain line is a -10 it goes on a 45 basically the entire way until that spot where i posted the picture
talked to one guy who has built numerous turbo cars and he thinks i am over oiling it with a -4 feed line with no restrictor. going to call bullseye int he morning and see what they say
