Good luck. Denial is a hell of a drug!
Not really denying, I have tooken out my intake and chargpipe and inspected couple times already, there is no oil leaking from the turbo. A little oil n the chargepipe is normal its part of the PCV System.

Are you running pure800 or stock turbo? If your are running pure800 what catch can set up do you have.

Which catch can set up did you end going with?
I now am using the catch can kit from KLM. Also have their oil cap that can be routed to a breather and/or routed into a catch can as well. (Will probably mock something up in the coming week)

Bad seals pure over the last 2 years have been notorious for seals failing. Send it in for repair and sell it go with something more reliable.

I don’t think you should worry so much. This is a common issue that people with pure800s face but I don’t see it blowing up or anything. I started noticing mine within the first 1000 miles.

I think the biggest indicator of blown seals or something wrong is if the exhaust emits blue smoke. I’ve only had the clearing white smoke around start up and had the oil issue since buying this turbo.

I agree with you. A lot of people have similar problem. Just some oil residue. But if the seal is bad i would see smoke from exhaust and car not performing as well. Which I don't have.

Are you running any catch can set up?

I have the Verus AOS with the CCV drainback system. I opened it up and I would figure since the drainback system, there would be nothing but at least the coalescent filters for each hole would have some color difference. They were still white

What I am gathering from all the info I know and read. These catch cans are useless?
I ordered mine yesterday. The dual Catch Can from Radium. Hopefully I didn't waste $500

It just depends on where the oil is coming from.. catch can doesn’t catch oil that’s leaking from the turbo
