Thats the one, every one thinks turbo's have oil seals, can you imagine how long an oil seal would last at exhaust gas temperartures'?? the problem you are experiencing is down to crank case pressures i explained this to the other guy on the phone the other day. more boost bigger crank case pressure, simple.........
