I didnt say they were for sure cause I have no way of seeing but that would explain their such short lives. Its okay stealthee, I understand ur problems.
depends where he got the turbos. someone could have the mhi housings and the internals were chinabay
They're for certain real MHI's? Man that's wierd... Pressure in the crankcase? I wouldn't think two seals would go bad like that. What's the setup type, oil/weoght, pcv setup, catch can, intake, bov, intercoolers. Cams, heads, timing at TDC and on decel?Quote:

Got the turbos from IPS as part of my TD05 kit back in the summer of 2008 so, they were NIB and they have been on the car less than 4 years. Not sure why they are both bad but the car has always had a turbo timer on it and it is set for 1 - 3 minutes depending on how hard the car had been run. I run 10w-40 amsoil in the car and aside from the high idle issue and the massive smoking the car runs great.
I gave it my regards as I walked past my garage through the falling snow, and thought about setting aside some cash for a '99 ECU.
I then mentioned this to my wife, who said she would prefer to get it painted and have a new windshield installed (the original has been pitted by desert driving).
I am torn.:)
