anyones procharger leak oil out the bypass?

my blower seems to be leaking oil into the intake stream, as its blowing it out all over the engine compartment through the bypass valve......im definitely gonna be on the phone with ATI (as dumb as they are) tomorrow.

its almost definitely supercharger oil......very very light oil, and its the same color......it can't be all that much cause the blower still reads full on the dip stick.

it has to be leaking through the impeller shaft in order to get in there.......im kinda pissed off lol

If the oil level in the blower isn't going down, then it's most likely oil coming from your PCV system. Clean out your intercooler tubes and disconect the PCV hose from the inlet of the blower for the weekend and see if you're still getting the same results.

thanks, but there is no PCV, if there was that would be obvious

I'm glad it's obvious to you, but you'd be suprised how many people don't put 2 and 2 together.
