Silece2k6 Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 I found out that my turbo is burning Oil. Seems like it pushes Oil into the Exhaust. When my Car Stands and idle you can see blue smoke from the Turbo. I ran a dash4 feed without restrictor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mk4Gaz Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Borg Warner recommend a restrictor on a an4 feed, but not necessary on a an3 feed. That 'could' be the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Style Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Make sure your drain back to the sump is big enough and positioned vertically downwards. My BW had oil passing the seals for that reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silece2k6 Posted March 25, 2016 Author Share Posted March 25, 2016 I think its not the drain, because i have dash10 and its very short to the sump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Is it a ball bearing type turbo? If so I would run a restrictor in the oil feed. You can buy an adaptor with a suitable restriction within in it, bolt on job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
np89 Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 No its journal bearing. I was recommended a -3AN feed by boostlabs for my BL S366HF which is essentially the same turbo but with billet goodies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silece2k6 Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 I used a restrictor with 1.6mm bore. No smoke anymore :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
