Yeah, it came with a case. Hopefully I'll be able to find a way to keep it coming in. I'm thinking maybe the place I ordered the turbo from will be able to keep it coming in.

I use dyno oil, but I want to switch to Royal Purple.
Any warnings.. suggestions?

Forgot to say how many miles I got on the engine.
It's almost 148K miles.

i would continue to use the convential oil because the with that many miles gaskets get worn down and synthetic oil finds those little crevices and escapes much easier than dino oil.
