Actually I ended up putting in new valve seals.
Your right, it wasnt too hard.
But maybe I screwed something up there?
It smokes when I’m on the throttle, and when I let off a bigger cloud comes out the tail pipe.
There wasn’t hardly any shaft play on the turbo from the 2006 car.
That rusty turbo in the picture is the old one off a saab 9000, 1994 if I remember right.
The other one in the picture is the original turbo that was on my 2002 car.
Surprisingly they use the same gasket. I think I’ll rebuild my original turbo ahead of time and then swap the center section & exhaust housing out on Friday/Saturday, so the car isn’t down very long.
