I would say that when the truck was "running" oil was passing by the rings(whether under boost or no boost, the crank case pressure and rotation of the crank would "splash/force" oil past and cause settling in the pipes, now that the motor has been off for a while Gravity is taking its course and it is going to the lowest location, and leaking out. (Does that makes sense? lol I think I worded that right) but I highly doubt that your new turbo is trashed, have you looked at the wheels to make sure no parts of the piston made there way to the turbo. I would check it to be on the safe side

Sent an email to Jon (i think) from fuel injector connection where i bought my injectors explaining my situation and my concerns that the injectors may have been damaged. Seems to be a great guy responded right away and is going to test them all for no charge! Thats a good way to earn a customer for life. Hopefully they all check out and i get them back soon

Decided to go with BBP for my tune. There are a few good options but with as many positive reviews and very few negative reviews it was hard not to go with them. They will get the autoCal sent out Wednesday after returning from a tune trip. Hopefully injectors and autocal will arrive around the same time and i will be ready to try this again. Going to go with 5# of boost for now and get some miles on the reman engine.

My BBP autocal should be arriving this afternoon and still waiting on the injectors no word from Jon yet.

Everything is mostly back together just need to install injectors and fuel rail


The only leftovers I have not bad I guess for first time


Hopefully I will have the truck running this week. Extremely nervous about it!
Including the price of the kit and all my troubles I now have about $9500 invested in adding a turbo to my truck

Admire you for staying the course and getting it done though! Hopefully you'll be enjoying it soon and all this crap is just a bad memory.

I wish I had only spent $9500 on mine. I'm into mine for about $24k.

Not including the cam in the first motor or the torque converter. Not including the truck.
