if the oil pressure is to high can it squirt oil back into the header? this is why, My turbo blowing oil out and smoking it up, and i took off my head pipe and there is oil inside of it. i thought maybe i blew a ring, but the actual exhaust holes on the head are completely dry, just inside the header there is like a oil residue???? any suggestions? please help

How is the turbo mounted in the engine bay? Is your oil return kinked? How the return routed and what is the size compared to the oil supply?

The the compressor side is on the drivers side and the exhaust on the passenger. no the oil return line is perfectly straight from the turbo directly to the front side top of the oil pan. My feed line doesn't have any kind of regulator or restrictor. I was thinking that would be the problem. I completely went threw the turbo on everything was prefect, all the seals we brand new with no breaks as was the bearing and everything else. I think if a pressure regulator for the feed line doesn't fix the problem then a new turbo it is... I just really don't the money for it right now. but thanks for any constructive comments.

I have read many post with this same problem try a restrictor if your running a T3/T4. I here they dont like much more then 30-40 PSI
