[QUOTE="Countrycar, post: 1541542, member: 11769"] Hey guys some follow up here on my SXE-472 Turbo. I got on the go pedal pretty hard on Wednesday and when I let off the pedal, I saw some light blue smoke blow out the exhaust pipe, then clear up. So I got on it again to see what would happen and when I let up again, more light blue smoke blew out then cleared up. It only did it twice, then stopped. I'd never witnessed this happen at all since I installed the turbo 4-6 weeks ago. So, at this point I figured that maybe there was something wrong with the Turbo internals and or seals. So I went ahead and removed the turbo. I left the Exhaust housing in place, but removed the cover and then the center section. What I thought I would see would be oil in exhaust side of the turbine or the Exhaust down pipe, but it was clean except for dry soot. No oil. So I'm kinda stumpped here. Anyone have any advice on this? Could the internal seals go bad where I wouldn't see an oily residue in exhaust/Turbine. I haven't torn the turbo down to verify the internals yet, but I'm not sure if I should. I ordered a rebuild kit that I should receive on Tuesday, just looking for answers. [/QUOTE]
