Edited my post. Went back and re-read it. I suppose it was mis-understood / poorly typed perhaps. I was trying say to have his engine and programming looked at to warn him, not tell him his engine was already toast. Thanks for revealing that.

just thinking outside the box here but maybe that shop in Florida forgot to open the cans, clogged exhaust is an engine killer.

You demandated your truck for a reason, probably cause the system was having issues. Your turbo was working against more back pressure then it should and when you demarcated it, you lose the back pressure and the turbo starts spitting oil.

Oil in your charge air cooler clamps cannot be coming from a bad head, there's no way.... only if it were out your exhaust. If you have insane blowing and oil in your cac piping, it's your turbo.

Take the oil return like off the side of your engine from your turbo and put it in a pail, then run the engine with your blowby test. Unless I read your test you did wrong (I am have drunk, so it's possible) but you did it wrong.

The boost is entering your engine through the oil return like, so remove the line, lose the blowing and your good.

I had the exact same thing happen to me, I almost rebuilt a perfectly good engine because of it. Don't be dumb like me.

Just did the test taking off the oil return line to the engine and surely it's the seal of the turbo pressuring the crankase, 100%!.
As far as my tuning is concerned its been over two years since my tuning was done, and no probs since. So It could've just been the turbo was old and it was it's time...Looks like I'm gonna replace my turbo and just to be safe will drop by to Mr. Haag to make sure my tuning was done right.
So the next question is can I take my turbo to get it rebuilt? Or is that a not great idea?

No the cans were hollowed out from day 1.

Would it be a better idea to get the old style turbo?(considering I change the exaust manifold with it)

Old style? As in non vg turbo? If you really want lower fuel economy, lose of most of your jake brake, and power only in a very narrow window..

no, get ur truck up to hagais and let him check it all out and unf&^k your ecm so it doesnt destroy another turbo. you'll spend more on a BW, manifold and block off stuff than buying another HOLSET that is more efficient when tuned properly. i would recommend bobbing up there so you dont break anything else that isnt already toasted. just my .02

Sorry Rawze, I should have quoted. That comment was actually meant towards the guy saying his head was buggered.
