    So, I swapped out my stock DP for a Perrin unit yesterday and when I had the intercooler off I noticed that there was oil sitting in the turbo outlet. Is this normal? There was a little oil in the intercooler output as well, but not nearly as much as was in the turbo outlet.

    I'm talking about enough to have a 1/2 wide channel in the output of the turbo, no more, prolly less than 2CC.
