I'd say if im honest you HAVE either shagged the turbo or the engine....
i asked the question a couple of months ago about fitting a t3 on a st escos, one or 2 people said they had done it with no complaints, and there was no negative feedback, so i went ahead with it, this oil burning on the overrun problem has been there a while, i kno you cant just slam anysize turbo on, but i thought the t3 would be ok as i had the idea from other people who had done it?
also i just went out in the car and this burning only occurs when im overunning down hill then power back on , it doesnt do it at all on the flat, it must be a breather problem or something to do with when the oil is more to the front of the engine when going down hill,
and there is no oil in the boost pipes and the turbo had done about 50miles since re-con..
