Phone quote of $450 to re-kit T3 (bearings and seals I imagine, extra if shaft play is excessive) + $270 for hi-flow. Now everyone says "yeah, man hi-flow it" - but no point if I running near standard boost is there? My last Dyno tune measured 10.3 PSI, engine management is fully programmable Haltech, but I haven't done a hard run yet to assess what duty load the injectors are on. Non-intercooled so that is the priority before anything else and obviously needed before any more boost.

we had a similar problem with our diesel turbo, it was the PCV valve. white/blue normally means turbo.

I removed my restrictive muffler, so my FJ20ET was running an almost
full-length, but unrestricted exhaust today. Go for a 10 min drive notI3.5k rpms and back in the driveway and after sitting there idling there's
clouds of white/blue smoke out the exahust. Shit i thought, no back
pressure has stuffed the turbo.
The motor has been known to blow a little blue smoke now and again I
thought previously this was valve stem seals, but most people advise it's
probably turbo oils seals. Anyway after few minutes the smoking stops. Ifshut down and wait 10 mins there's no smoke on start-up. Is this oil from
the turbo feed getting into the turbo and burning off? I mean it is an
excessive amount of smoke - no smoke t when I'm actually driving, tho I
didn't drive away whilst it was pluming. 20 mins later I went for another
spin - up to 5.5 k rpms no smoke on run - then heaps when idling down in
drive way again. Didn't do this when the muffler was on, and I'll put it
back tomorrow and see if there's any difference.
