Time to have the turbo rebuilt.. What should I do?
Is there a quality affordable place to send it to? I have a bunch of oil in my intercooler and uppipe. Is this something I can order a kit for? I only noticed because a friend of mine was following me, and everytime the boost kicked in, he said blue smoke would come out.. I took...- Chippyonetwo
