I'll try to make little more angle to see if it helps. if not i guess it time to get the turbo rebuilt or upgrade to -10 drain line.

 

-4 is to large and is not need. No need fir -10 unless you are not going vertical with line or in very cold climates. Been using -8 drains with -3 feed lines and no problems.
We did need to run a restrictor on our t106 and had a dry sump pump pulling on the drain.

I agree with the hi milage time for an overhaul. Missed the milage thing and seeing how the problem just showed up.

 

I'm rocking a nitrous pill restrictor on my MP, no issues. It's spins better now with 5k miles on then it did new. I can shut the truck off and give the compressor a quick spin by hand and it will spin for around 10 seconds before stopping.

Sounds like 50k mile maybe the end of the road for your unit. I'd contact one of the retailers and see if MP can rebuild it and save you some money rather then buying a new one.

 

So you saying every 50k i'm going to have the turbo rebuilt. I can get rebuilt here local for about $200. I was just hoping it didn't need to be rebuilt. I'm going to see if can get the drain line with more angle to see if that helps. If not i take to have it rebuilt.

 

its funny you mention that rick cause the manufacturers and distributors recommend -4 and -10. I know my pt88 came with -4 and -10 fittings, wolfe racecraft sells -4 and -10 for their turbonetics. Dr. Turbo recommends the following as well.

i seen precision 58s fail cause of a -3 feed and improper drain size. this was a on TT transam. id hate to see another turbo fail cause of lack of oil

 

or you could invest into a better quailty turbo, or be happy with replacing your MP every so many years

MP work well but they are a budget product

 

Well at this moment time it not in budget to spend a $1000 + on a better turbo. Truck just get new forgen ls1 and now truck needs go back exhaust shop because they give me enough room around the trans xmember. All i know is this new motor is fighting me.

 

Hotrodding. Thousands of option opinions and headaches.

Slight leak no smoke in out the pipe?

 

Yea, there no smoke coming out the exhaust pipe. I have mirror looking at the the exhaust tips. Like said before i'll try to angle the drain line some more to see if that helps. If not i'll get rebuilt here localy and may be upgrade the drain line. All I know i've been running same size drain line. I have replace few times because it getting hot and cracked. Thanks for input Rick.

 

No problem let me know if I can help in any way. Some times something looks bad and its just used...
Let me know what you find out.
