Valve stem seals?

Yes, if the turbo seals are shot, oil will get into the turbine housing and burn and oil will get into the compressor housing and neatly distribute itself all over your intercooler piping and intercooler.

Now when you ran the motor without coolant I'm guessing the turbo took the brunt of it. Seeing how turbo's get so hot its not even funny, so without coolant cooling it, the bearings will be destroyed in short order.

hmm okay man. Maybe ill try just replacing the turbo and see how that goes. My friend has an extra i can try. If that doesnt do it ill replace the engine with a new built one. How much does a built mkiii with 550-650rwhp go for? Magenta color, mkiv rims, targa, body is immaculant. Apexi 7 way adjustables, eibach springs, new pads, new rotors, 285/40/17 tires in back, 245/45/17 tires in front, map-ecu tune. Ill list more later, but can i get like 9 maybe 10k for that? If its properly built?
