[QUOTE="carguy19, post: 5951391, member: 47250"] I cant promise you this is the issue, but on the oil feed side of the turbo there is a little restrictor plate or screen to lower the pressure and force of the oil coming into the turbo. When I put my subaru together, the company forgot to install the little screen and when I drove the car it looked like a cropduster. (the same thing that happened to you happened to me) the missing screen caused oil to be forced out of the seals of the turbo. I installed the screen and it fixed it without the seals going bad thank god. A week later the car went 11.30 @ 124 not too shabby for a stock subaru 4 cyl. :D [/QUOTE]
