    There is another BW turbo out there that is a little cheaper you could use as long as you don't go above the 475 Hp rating. It's been awhile since I sold, I think they were around $1650

    Pm me if you're interested

    Hi guy I have the same thing going on with my 3406e 5ek motor. I'd liked to know how you did. A leak test if you can tell me that would be great. I call a place selling turbos on ebay in calf. I told him wt was going on he said changed the air filers and check for leaks I have oil passing through the air changer. Its not a lot its more like a film the truck uses no oil no oil. If n e one can tell me how to leak test it or if the turbo is damaged it has been like this for years always spotting oil. Thanks
