TURBO GURUS Help Critique etc. oil in exhaust.
Hey guys so basically like the description says I'm getting oil in my exhaust. I bought my turbo used a while ago and was going to order a new one n e ways. It's been burning ever since i got it tuned and my tuner was thinking that it was just excess oil that might have been in my turbo. So i have just been taking it easy on the car ever since and finally took it out this year and doing a little bit of a tune up. I checked my turbo inlet and it is clean. Oil levels check out to be normal, So basically do you guys think its my turbo exhaust side seal thats going bad or you think its the way my oil filter relocator is sitting? I have a UR oil filter relocator waiting to be put back in so i can have my oil cooler back in. Much input would help guys. here are some pictures to see...

your oil return is not angled properly & in a bad spot to begin with .. best bet is to tap the girdle, timing chain cover, or front of the pan (supercharger location)

Did you drill a hole in the pan? Threaded? If yes, use a plug and call it a day.
I have my oil return in the same spot as Deception, maybe a tiny bit higher, just don´t know if this is a good spot for a bottom mount turbo since you want the drain as vertical as possible.
If you go 45 degr from the turbo drain flange, where do you end up? Girdle?
About the hose, double check that one. Most hydraulic hoses can handle oil but not heat, it will release small rubber pieces and kill the engine in the long run.
People forget to tell the hose guy about heat and just buy regular oil hose.
