i took off my lower ic pipe to fix it because it was cracked. when i disconnected the coupler to the intercooler a little oil poured out like just a little ,but oil is like all over the inside. the upper part of the ic pipe around the engine has a little also I've been told this is blow by. the first engine the car had in it had done the same thing i put a jdm engine in it and it has run good and never no problems but it also done the same thing with oil in the pipes. now oil burning in the exhaust i had never seen until i was about to drive to panama city beach for spring break that morning i let it sit there and idle for awhile i hit the gas and it blew smoke no more after that. it only does it if it just idles for a long time and i hit the gas. I'm confused if it was blow by it would burn all the time. the oil in the pipes i believe is the turbo. and i don't have any oil loss that i know of its allays the same level maybe a little lower but that's around when I'm bout to change the oil. well what do yall think it could be and the turbo is probably pretty old. i also run royal purple oil.
oil in ic pipes but i only see oil out the exhaust after it idles for about ten min.

Sounds like turbo seals are bad. Have it rebuild before it makes a real mess. Trust me its no fun.
Would sending it to drift motion and get the 57 trim upgrade and it seramic coated nad polished be a good thing to do or is there a cheaper way to get it rebuilt
Ceramic coat and polished cost more.
Could be the rings or just the pcv system.
7ms usually have some oil in there excessive is too much.

ok well im goin to just try and get a cheap oil catch can and see if that helps if it is the rings ill just drive it till it breaks and then I'll rebuild. thanks for the input
small traces in the IC piping is du to the PCV doing it's job on the 7m. If you get a puddle in your IC then you have bad seals on the turbo
