Turbo "seals" do not blow. A seal is a metal ring much like what you find around your pistons. The only way a turbo is going to blow oil out into the exhaust is:
1. Oil backs up into the bearing housing. This is usually caused by excessive crank case pressure, or a kinked/obstructed drain
2. There is bearing failure and the shaft is able to move freely enough to damage the piston ring seal.
If the turbo shaft still seems tight and it is smoking, 99.9% of the time it is because of #1.

I just got the fitting installed with with smaller exit hole...
gotta drive around with someone following cuz i sure cant see the smoke.. never did in the first place lol
i was also told by PFAB that the fitting is too large so to put a restrictor which i pretty much did... and to get the krank vents installed..
so i'm guessing the oem PCV isnt strong enough that i could put in the rubber hose between the intake mani and the valve cover?

really? where did you get the supra one? like from auto zone?
wat year supra? twin turbo i'm guessing right?
cuz if i can get one at the advanced auto, best believe i'mma go there tomolo to get one hahahaha
anyways.. B and T showed me the fitting, it was DEF alot bigger than the one they put in.... i mean its litterally like twice the size of the new one they put in...
a very trusting friend that owns a shop said i should be fine with the fitting.. and if not.. to change the oil drain line so... i guess its a worth the shot lol
