Three Wheelin'
I haven't done much to my car in the past few years, primarily as it just runs so good and it's a weekend toy, competing with a Harley Road King and carbon road bike for my free time.
Just hit 60K, had a local indy shop do the plug service, we also installed Swedish D088 intercoolers at the same time as I'm now living in East Bay where it gets 20, 30, and even 40 degrees hotter than SF. Only mods are Kline exhaust with a custom Sam @ By Design 100 octane tune, as I run the car exclusively on good gas since it's a 12 minute drive from my house.
I did a few 3rd gear pulls w/ data logs and have just rec'd my updated map from Sam. Looking forward to the new tune!

So the great oil in the intake problem is back - this time, it is on the drivers side.
Question to the group - I know the seals on the passenger side turbo are going and I am going to address that with new turbos, but how much oil is too much oil?

So, as luck would have it, another leak has been found, as noted below. Is it possible to get to this without lowering the motor a bit?
I am not so dainty.

Ok, that screen capture could have been better...

EDIT…
you are going to have to lower the motor as low as possible and pray you can get to the back of the plenum…

Yeah, sorry about the pic - it was early here...
That's sort of what I was thinking... on the PDF, that pipe is wiggling and we can hear air escaping when we pressurize the system. The wrench wants to lower the engine to get to it, but I couldn't even figure out how this could have come loose in the first place...
