I blew the oil seal on the turbo. Still driving now with wastegate connected. Smokes and smells bad. I ordered new turbo off the internet. Ebay keyword 4d56 1st one that says it fits 84 and is oil cooled. Im sure its Chinese. I'll slap it on and use while mine gets rebuilt. I wanted water cooled but I need plumbing hardware for it. Also im looking into getting a pyrometer before I boost higher. Where did you install it? can I weld a threaded bung on the exhaust pipe right after the flange? Or is that too far away from the turbo? How hot is too hot?
