if it's happening at idle then you can probably rule out insufficient crankcase ventilation. sounds like the oil is getting backed up. are you sure the return has no kinks in it?

do you have a pic of the engine bay?
I curious about what the manifold looks like and how low the turbo is actually sitting?

Ill go take more pics of the engine bay.

As for kinks, no, but there is that 90 degree bend off the turbo...

I cant install that ball valve that I bought, it doesnt have enough room to screw on either way, so I was wondering if I even need the oil pressure sensor? Could I take it off and screw the ball valve directly to the block?

Where is your oil feed line
from that pic it looks like it's going into the top off
the manifold, but that's not it right?

*edit* i see it in the other pic

try taking it off and inspecting it.
that's all i can think of to do
and just in case check out ebay and pic you up a nother one for 100 bucks or so fro a back up plan. That's what i plan to do incase anything happens.

Ok, the valve didnt help, so its either the seals or the 90 deg bend.
