Default turbo question

ok, i have a vf22 at the min and making 340bhp at 1.4 bar.

Think one of the oil seals has gone in it though as there is a lot of oil around the intercooler pipework.

Did a few check of the breather system and pressure at the oil cap. Both were good so I can only assume its the turbo.


I was wanting to keep the power i have with another turbo that can run a constant 1.4 bar but dont really like the TD05's

Is the vf22 my best option or what could i go for?

Thanks
Jamie

no its grand there is no problem with it, just putting oil back into the intercooler pipe work, its not effecting the performance of the car at all, just using a bit more oil than i would like lol.

well if u ever decide to change either one for those would be a good choice.....slightly more top end from a VF34 at the expense of a bit later spool than the 35, but id say it wouldnt be noticeable really
