OK so I just googled that ---- and it is 90% likely it's my return line cause that ---- was kinked bad, but I remember when i got the thing there was some oil in the intercooler walls too! doesn't that indicate blown seals too? tomorow im gonna go in the school shop and put it back on with a straighter line. hope its the return

If you got oil in your charge pipes you probably have worse problems than a kinked line

The kinked line may have caused it, but a rebuilt might be calling your name

Might aswell look into a restrcitor to see if you can get a season out of it, there dirt cheap

Good thing you stole it because it turned out to be a piece of ----. At least that's how I look at it. lol
