Should be easy to find a leak of that magnitude.
I guess I was wrong about the injectors. Too bad as it would have been an easy fix.

well it never hurts to try ... as for leaks i figured if its going to come out the valley it would be soaked but its clean ... no sign of any leakage just the oil coming out of the exhaust ... jeremy aka jtharvey had asked me if i had seen any oil in my up pipes when i removed the tubo but the up-pips were clean just your normal soot but none built up ... the only thing with oil was the exhaust part of the turbo thats why i had thought it might have been a seal in the tubo ... but when i took the tubo apart and recieved the new parts the old parts did not seem to be damaged in any way but some how oil was in the exhaust part of my turbo and now i see oil coming out the exhaust were is it coming from ??? if u guys got a minute you can check out my white smoke topic and can see the pictures of my turbo insides ... as for tommorow i may take a video of the truck idling and without the oil cap so u can see what i got going here ...

Check your CCV mod--- itsp prolly plugged or pinched not allowing Crank gasses to leave and there leaving through the turbo instead.

The oil and smoke was the reason for the turbo rebuild. I'm thinking there's still something not right with the turbo though. I'm thinking this because I can't see why else the uppipes don't have an oily residue in them, but the turbine housing and downpipe do? To me, that almost pinpoints the problem with the turbo. I know it was just rebuilt, but perhaps there's a problem with the turbo still, like in the center section not allowing the ring seal to function properly. I with you could get a different turbo to try, one that's known to not have any issues, and bolt it on to see if there's any difference.
