hi Ben, welcome to the site.
garrett is the standard turbo for a gt, so you have probably had a second hand one put in and by the sound of it, not a very good condition second hand one.
Hi!This is my first message as a newboy!I recently had a"Garrett"turbo fitted to my 1996 GT,and ever since it has burnt and or leaked oil,especially after standing a while.Has anybody got any suggestions at all?Thanks.Ben.

Hi!No its a new one!
where is it leaking oil from?
did the old turbo break while on the car, maybe some residue left over in the exhaust from that?
Mk1 uno t uses an IHI RHB4, mk2 uno t uses a garrett T1/T2..........mk1 punto gt uses an IHI VL7, not a garrett!!!
Either way, they have the same spec iirc.
