Guest SVO347 Guests Posted 20/01/03 11:52 AM Share Posted 20/01/03 11:52 AM Nothing to really worry about mate, Im sure that's why they used ball bearing turbo's instead of bronze bushes, as they will run alot longer with minimal damage with minimal lube. I have seen accumulator type oiling systems where they store pressurized oil that bleeds out once the ignition is stopped , providing protection for turbos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
