A couple days after I got my exhaust on it was raining and I noticed the oil mixed with water puddle under my car. I'm like, no big deal, she always leaks oil. And I checked, nope, not low. Well I drove it a lot last weekend and ripped on it quite a bit, drove it pretty hard. Popped my hood that day to find oil all over the engine bay. There was a big puddle splattered on the underside of my hood as if shot from somewhere. I check dipstick again, this time I am a little low. Now I am smelling it burning in the engine bay. Oil has gotten onto my mani and is now burning off. It's all over the front of the engine bay. Doesn't squirt when I sit under there and rev it, must be doing it under boost or something. Turbo isn't wet, like the front of the block is. And the underside of the mani isn't wet so I don't think it's spraying out of the turbo. I don't freaking know. I looked all over, I cannot figure out where it's coming from, when I do figure it out I am going to smack myself. Here's some pics, let me know what you think.

Go buy a huge can of degreaser and clean it all up first. Then you will find it easily.

 

Oil feed line?

U use liquid teflon or teflon tape on the threading for the feed?

 

I used teflon tape, there is barely any oil going to the turbo since my restrictor is turned almost all the way back...

 

Underside of turbo isn't wet, it would have to be wet if the return was spraying right?

 

Do you have an open PCV fitting? Just thinking maybe oil's spitting out onto everything else. I know it doeson my Civic

 

the return shouldn't sprey... its gravity pulled to the pan, it basically drips out.
