    Exactly... ^^^ The turbo makes this snarling growl sound once the power drops off.. and it just does not seem normal to me for it to make that sound. especially when the drop in power happens....

    I'd love to see and hear this set up to try to determine the cause of your issue and I'd also like to talk to Garrett and let them explain the air coming out of the oil drain and coolant ports of the turbo if my turbo wasn't installed I'd be out there trying the same test .I wonder does anyone on here have a known good Garrett turbo they can do this test on ???

    Just so happens that I have a nice GT42RS sitting on my table. What do you want me to do?

    I agree as it doesn't make sense hence the reason I'd love to hear Garrett explain their explanation .

    Did you see the test video he did on his turbo ? Do the same test he did and lets see if the results are the same I highly doubt they will be but this would 100% prove it .
