[QUOTE="TexasJ, post: 1555664, member: 30660"] [b]We made it![/b] Well guys, we made it to our destination! I cleaned it well with brake cleaner before leaving, and after over 6 hours on the road with a few stops for fuel and provisions along the way, loaded down with 2 adults, 2 giant dogs, and lots of luggage, and traveling at speeds of up to 82mph and reaching boost of up to 12-13psi (maybe more during hard accelleration), the oil spot has returned under the pedestal. I confirmed that it is NOT coming from the pedestal to turbo o rings, it is for sure coming from the pedestal to engine o rings. That being said, after all of that driving under the conditions described above, the oil spot is only half the size that it was before. With it being such a small leak, do you think I just need to tighten one of the pedestal to engine bolts a bit? Or is it possible one or several are overtightened, and that's causing a leak? I'm at a loss... Thanks guys, and hope y'all had a merry christmas and have a happy new year! [/QUOTE]
