When checking the oil lines to the turbo I noticed that the oil reservoir on the turbo had come loose. This is on a MCXpress kit using the Mitsubishi 16T turbo. I will have to take the turbo off to tighten the screws that holds the reservoir onto the turbo housing. My turbo was leaking a little, I could tell cause it was oil on the plate underneat the turbo.

I just want to notify others with the same turbo to check this out. If it comes really loose it will be blowing oil out and your sled will start using oil.
 
Had that happen to me too. Just gotta watch it. I notice oil dripping on the track.
 
Freak - Was just doing that, watching.... :-) I am changing my seat for a Nytro seat I got cheap. While at it I figured I would raise my base boost level to 12.5 lbs by shortening the wastegate arm by 3 full turns. I though I should check the oil lines as well, thats how I found out. Also found out I have exhaust leaks underneat in the Y-pipe...

I need info on Boss NOS systems and the setup you use on your sled, i also need advice on which set of Slydog skis to run. Could you PM or mail me some info.
