So I've got my oil pan back off my car again. I only got the chance to drive it turbocharged for a few weeks last year, between finishing it and parking it again for adjustments.

Inside my oil pan I see this



Has anyone ever seen or experienced this happening with their build?

If it's a brand new build I would expect some of that until everything is fully broken in.

Yep,

Just took mine apart again and looks the same. Frequent oil changes.

Ah, good to know. I had a hunch it might've just been the same. After the first 2 runs with the turbo on I got that "new turbo smell" that scared the crap outta me until a friend told me that was normal lol
