It sounds like the shaft seals could be shot already. I know this Pure turbos are considered remanufactured. What oil weight are you using?
I just bought an 800. What oil would be recommended to use ?

I thought 5w-30 was still a little on the light side. I purchased 10w-40 motul. I’m pure800 fbo e50 so we’ll see what happens lol
I personally would had preferred a 0w-40 or 5w-40 not a 10w. Too thick at startup. GTRs use Mobil 1 0w-40. You want quick lubrication at cold start and heavy enough oil for protection and to maintain a good pressure when it gets really hot

So should I pass on this oil? Idk this is just what I was recommended

I’m not going to tell you what oil you should use on you car, but like I said, personally I wouldn’t use such a thick oil. If you need a 40, then the Mobil 1 0w40 is a good candidate IMO.
