Stupid EBV leak
Stupid EBV pedestal leak is going away soon. Never knew I had it as there is no evidence on the driveway. As you can see it is headed south. I will be replacing that with a non ebv pedestal in short order.
I think a new turbo is in order. What do you guys think?

Does not look to bad. If youre valley does not have a puddle in it, I would not worry about it right away. I read a recent link on here that an oily residue is normal. I think that info was was in the link you posted on turbos and identifying wheel damage. Your on the right track by getting rid of it all together. Anyway, Rons turbo shop is the direction I went and he also has the deleted flange for the turbo. I purchased the code deleter from dfuser and the only one you need is the one that goes onto the harness that plugged into the EBPV selenoid. What turbo are you thinking about getting?

Edit: If you do decide to pull that pedestal, the back right bolt is a beach. I suggest socket, universal and short extension on a 3/8 drive. Cant remember the order but I'm sure the ratchet was last and the socket was 1st

Well, if you need to convince the wife that a new turbo is necessary, you could try this: the oil leak from the pedistal has caused the turbo to receive less oil than it's supposed to have and could have damaged the turbo, which would require it to be replaced. Maybe not 100% true, but...
