bought Drifhtmotion Intercooler

supraheelfan · 06-01-2015, 07:01 PM

Every since the piping and intercooler has been installed it has oil coming out of the intercooler piping at an excessive amount and I even rebuilt my turbo with new seals and everything and it still leaks oil OUT of the intercooler piping and I would like some advice If there is any to give? Apparently the PCV piping could cause this? I'm going to get a catch can and according to DM if the catch can feels up then it's.... I forgot what he said it would be in that case, any help plzzz?

Check to see if oil is seeping past the air flow meter into the air cleaner housing. That would indicate excessive blow by from the PVC system. A trace of oil at the inter-cooler inlet is normal. Be sure to use a dynamic (metal) seal in the turbo rebuild and not a carbon seal which will wear and leak. I use 20W-50 oil since I live in a hot state. Thicker oil tends to leak and be used less.
