[s-cars] Oily "Michelin Man" Question

[Bjørn Ødegård]

Wouldn't it be normal to get some oil in there? Even with immaculate
turbo bearings? I mean, the oily fumes from the crankcase ventilation is
in fact injected through the turbo cold side, and after the narrow exit
of the turbo housing, it's just slow moving air all the way to the
intercooler. Oil _will_ be deposited there.. Rinse & forget is my motto!

shorted in some way, but the fogs went too! Aarrgh!)
