I just put my rebuilt ej22t in my legacy, i noticed after a long run that some oil (it seems) is leaking from the compressor housing. Its coming from where the housing is attached to the mid-section.

It had a lot of gamut on it when i removed it, so i got it clean again. Is it normal to see oil or coolant coming out of there after 3000km. The turbo is not new, but im positive that the bearing are in great shape.

Anyway, any feedback would be appreciated, cheers Mat

WWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!! I think I understood that. Most of it anyway :D

I mean "je pense que je comprendre." Or is that completely wrong?

You're not very far ;) , you just forgot to match the verbe tense with the subject.

wrong - "Je pense que je comprendre"
good - "Je pense que je comprend"
better - "Je pense avoir compris" .. "je pense que j'ai compris" :)

I had the return line a bit loose, its tight again but the turbo is still leaking more than i tought it would. Anyway, i'll wait and get the money for a better one :D
