Oil is coming out of your breather filter on your crankcase, or your air filter (intake)?

If it's the intake, bad oil seal on the turbo, bent valves, or many other horrible things. Most common is bad oil seal on turbo tho.

If it's the breather filter... a LITTLE oil coming out is normal. More than a few drops after a very hard run usually signifies blown rings. If it's gushing... might as well pull the motor and rebuild.

Way to be an *******. SF is a good kit, but it doesn't mean his custom setup isn't just as good. So shut up.

Anyways, you can have blown rings and still have most of your power. Do a compression check and then a leakdown test if you do have a lot of oil out your intake and have checked your turbo's oil seals. Do a few tests before you worry too much, it could be something simple and easy to fix.

I agree. Do a compression and leakdown test before anything else. That will tell you if anything is wrong.
