[QUOTE="Onelfastlride, post: 5840711, member: 7298"] Isn't the turbo Identification # on a sticker on the compressor backing plate? You'll have to double check with Jason, but if so, can't you see it without removing the turbo? Maybe use a mirror. Did you ever fix your wastegate springs? Again, you don't install multiple springs, just shim. I'm fairly certain, the [b]Turbonetics Turbos do NOT use an oil restrictor[/b]. The fitting installed is an oil screen to catch garbage. You can search the turbonetic site forums and they do not recommend restrictors. When you pull your turbo, check for oil on the inlet of the compressor and the outlet of the turbine. If you have oil there that could be your blue puff of smoke and could be oil getting past the seals. Turbonetics will tell you make sure your drain line is a straight shot down to the oil pan. With the proper oil drain line size and routing, you do not need a restrictor. [/QUOTE]
