Your turbo is leaking or is it just the boost pipes/connections leaking?

Your turbo valve? Wtf?
Is your keyboard missing some letters?
The best idea might be some basic english lessons. Then maybe you could look at more difficult things like fixing cars.
If you are looking for a cheap fix that will bolt straight on... well, it's just not going to happen.

Turbos do have internal valves that can leak oil.
You want one that does bolt straight on unless you want to spend moon beams on special intakes etc.
So there is little choice and the $2500 bolt on is what you should go for.
As for the text style typing many on here hate that sort of thing and you wont get any help from some of the more knowledgeable types if you talk like a home boy at them like that.

Dude, that is painful to read. Can you please write in full English? Spell check is your friend  Oh, is your car manual or auto? Auto's don't like more power. |

To be honest I recon a rebuilt K03 is what you should do. If you try to chase power you will spend heaps and not really ever find happiness I don't think  And don't worry bout the text speak, were not real assholes, just its kinda crap for us older types you know.  |
