if its not 100% for sure... read below.

is there oil in your intake piping, intercooler, air filter box? around the PCV Valve and its lines?

Not trying to rule out that you did infact take the turbos out and deemed them 'bad' but I have seen it often where it is somethingelse..
there was oil in the intercooler piping, spitting out of the down pipe and running dow the air filter pipe. when i took the turbos out one of the shafts fell out. u have been very helpful sir i appreciate the input

If your north of ATL around flowery branch or Buford i would suggest going to ARD Motorsports, Chris Anderson owns it, he used to own AAP Motorsports, he knows his ****.
yeah i found out they aren't in atlanta and i'd rather deal with someone locally so i guess ill be looking up chris. speaking of dealing locally i found a motor importer in atlanta who turned out to be my neighbor in a previous neighborhood i lived in, he remembered me by name from fifteen years ago even gave me a tour through the warehouse. he has a junkyard on one side of the street and the warehouse is across. i'll inbox anyone the info that wants it thanks again for all the info guys.
