ok so i got my turbo rebuilt because i was burning oil and oil was comin out of my BOV. rebuilt it, and no more oil out the BOV but it still burns oil. so today i decided to lower the boost to 0lbs to see if that helped and it did, with no boost my car doesnt smoke but i tried resetting the waste gate to were it was, and no matter what i do, theirs still no boost. any suggestions on whats goin on???

It wasn't your turbo in the first place, it was crankcase vent vapour coming from the port on the top of the cam cover. Its a common problem among 3sgte's. Get an oil catch can, that should solve that problem.
How did you adjust the boost? With a controller/bleed valve or by playing around with actual wastegate. If you moved the actual wastegate you may have broken the diaphram or the circlip that holds the shaft to the flap may have come loose and fallen off. Check the shaft and flap on the back side close to the block. |
