Having oil in your intercooler does not mean that you have a blown turbo. Its probably normal blow by from not having a catch can installed between your pcv and air intake.
As long as you have a proper oil feed restrictor then you shouldnt have any more issues with blown turbos. This post has been edited by lagos: Feb 5, 2008 - 3:41 AM -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
