Sent in my TA-49 in January to be rebuilt.A couple of 20psi runs on the street left smoke pooring out of exhaust.Sent turbo back to Limit and sent back new turbo.Reinstalled turbo and this one lasted a week.?But maybe there's a problem causing this.I'd like someone to figure this out before I bolt on a new turbo.But I don't know where to go for this problem.Any ideas out there?Getting frustrated with this car.Need help.:confused:
 
Are you getting a good supply of oil to the turbo? The oil feed line can get clogged with age & it's a good idea to replace them on higher mileage cars with a turbo change.
 
Is the turbo under warranty? Has Limit noticed or recommended anything? That TA-49 should live a long time at only 20 psi.
 
Talked to Chopper said to check for excessive pressure from oil filler tube but was o.k. meaning pcv ok?
