I bought this GT2860RS .86 turbo from Rharris19 which he said only had 100 miles on it. When i got it it had both axial and radial shaft play although not enough to contact the blades. Anyway i took off my intake 10 minuets ago and discovered a bit of oil on the inlet. I thought it may be residue so i wiped it off and then took a video...

If you have the BEGi lines you'll need to get the restricter from BEGi. If not you can get them on the cheap from just about anywhere...maybe ARTech has them.
