So I don't have to constantly banter you all with turbo questions. Who can points me to some good reads about Turbo, dos and don'ts. What is turbo lag, and pretty much anything that I can read and will better educate me on what I have and what I can do. Googleing Turbo Tech or anything along that long proved useless -_- surprised it didnt pick up **** ha.
Figure the more I know now will help me when I plan to upgrade the exhaust/intake/and Maybe mess around with tuneing...im leery on adjusting the boost without knowing the basics of Turbo.

Ahh nice, was a tad too tired to remember Wiki ha, and how could I forget Garrett -_-
I'll have to read more into these over the weekend to figure out my system. Some one before me tinkered in this motor and im unsure whats changed and what's the same. And/or if he/she did it right or wrong. My mechanic said there was some oil through out the intercooler pipes, but the pvc valve wasn't clogged, so im taking it with almost 100k this is normal? Or could the bearing in the turbo be slightly leaky?
*shrug* I need to find me friend thats turbo educated lol that's local =P

yes your pvc is what is causing the oil in the ic and piping. If it was your turbo you and the entire block would know. You would have a huge cloud behind you.
