Thanks for the replies but the turbo is fine. Turned out to be the oil breather issue.

So don't need a new turbo now.

Sorry guys.

Yeah, need to look into the best catch tank setup for the Hawkeye. I'm still on factory power and TMIC is fitted so not much room for a catch tank.

my secondary air pump got removed from mines when it was forged and made space for a catch can well worth it as car hardly touches any oil dont even think it has a coating of oil inside
