Message	I had a VERY similar problem when running my gt28rs' and it ended up that i didnt have restrictors in the oil feed line to the turbo/on the turbo.... funy thing is, i have the restrictors, but found out the hard way before all the hype about BB turbos needing oil restrictors hit the board.. good luck!
