Default New Turbo

Jack, I need your help. I bought a new turbo center section from you this past Friday. I installed it, started the car and it ran great for around four or five minutes. I was getting 75 lbs of oil pressure at idle. I raised the rpm to 1,500 rpm and began blowing tons of smoke out the back. The inboard seal on the new turbo failed and I was pumping oil into the intake. Can you help me out, I want to return the turbo to Precision ASAP and have them put seals in it and get it back to me so I can get my car back on line.

I think we will have to change the pressure release spring on the oil pump to lower the pressure.


Please write back so we can put together a plan.

Thanks Frank
