[QUOTE="EvilTwins, post: 8172040, member: 62345"] Oh man that sucks to hear... I was hoping oil never made it into the cold side, you are going to want to remove the intercooler and clean it very well! I recommend putting it on its side and spraying like 3 cans of brake cleaner in there to ensure there is no more oil in there. Maybe even start off with a garden hose to get the bulk of the oil out of there?? I don't know what to say though man with regards to the problem that lead to this mess. It is very obvious now that your oil seals (is it from one turbo or both) are very very shot. I guess it must have been caused when the line was kinked on the drain? When you rebuild these turbos make sure everything is perfect when you reinstall it! I really recommend you install some restrictors on your oil feeds if you haven't already. Also keep in mind that when you reinstall the turbos and start it up, even if there aren't any current problems you will most likely be seeing blue smoke for quite a while. It takes some time for the oil in your exhaust to burn off! [/QUOTE]
