Turbo 900 93

Well, it appears that the Mitsubishi turbo was bad. The car has 85k, and who knows what the cause for premature failure, but after removing the turbo it was clear that it had enough play to be allowing oil past the seal/s. So for around $700+ I now have a "new" unit installed. We went for all the cheap fixes initially, oil breather suspicion etc... but in the end the turbo won out, unfortunately for me.
