oil leaks after turbo'd
I recently noticed a massive amount of oil in the engine bay. I am guessing its from the blow off valve blowing it off. Its also in my air filter. Blah I got a recharge kit and fixed my K&N and replaced my PCV valve thinking that would fix the problem. It didnt! The oil is either coming from the breather or a faulty turbocharger so I took the breather out of the filter and pointed it towards the ground. I know its unsafe but I couldnt care less!! Oil came from the ground to begin with!

Have you tried feeling around under the Turbo or whatever you think might be leaking to see if you can find exactly where its coming from.. Check your oil lines to your turbo and make sure they are on tight and dont have holes anywhere..
I just spitting out some ideas.. goodluck.

If you feel that you are getting excess oil from you crankcase then the first place I would look is the condition of the rings. Try doing a compression test wet and dry. That will at least give you a idea if that is where it is coming from. If it comes out fine then check into the turbocharger. Im just not understanding how your air filter has been exposed to oil as it is before both the crankcase venilation and the turbo. But good luck and hope its nothing major.

Well, the crankcase breather was attached to the air filter before I put it towards the ground.
