When good turbo's go bad

[bama-t-type]

just got my turbo back from getting rebuilt put it on cleaned oil line primed oil line made it about 8 mile before car started rolling out oil smoke wtf really sucks i hope they will fix it. had never drove the car with boost.
to start with i had boost controller lines on wrong so it was just building 10psi
went back and changed lines around and OMG i was suprised did not think it would run like that lol went strait to 20psi. i do feel alot better about what i paid for car now though. has anyone else had this problem?

What turbo is it?
That happened to me - turbo lasted 18 miles.
Most reputable companies that rebuild turbo's, should fix it under warranty.
If they did not build it to HA specs, it will leak.
Good luck!

I think they built it as a hot air. would rather not say who done it unless they won't fix it .. it is a turbonetics stage 3 i think
