So I installed a garrett t25 off an sr20 Nissan (journal bearing). I had to clock the turbo and get adapters but everything was installed correctly, a month later I decided to check under my car and I saw oil leaking out off the turbo, my first guess was the seals, now my car smokes like crazy at idle and even when driving I contacted the buyer I bought the turbo from he was telling me I needed an oil restrictor or a bigger oil line, I never checked my oil pressure for the turbo when I installed it, but I would like to know when I do, what is the right reading of oil pressure when I do check it? And if anyone knows why the turbo is leaking oil in only one month of use, I do not run the car hard, it is a daily.
