Oil in intake side of turbo & behind TB.....

[Hotair85]

I know that this means that the seal is probably bad, but there is no shaft play to speak of, nor did the car appear to burn any oil. It is only the stocker and it's getting swapped for a TA-33c, but that still don't kill my curiosity. Anyone who could shed light on this would help me a lot! Thanx in advance.

There is a common issue with the PCV valve....might want to look into that. I put a catch can in just in case even though I didn't have the issue. From what I have read with certain brands oil gets sucked into the vacuum block and then gets into the turbo intake side and the intake itself. There are alot of posts on the issue....
