I ran a search and only found info regarding intercoolers on the Ecoboosts..

I had my car out on the road course the other day and after the first 20mins session, I noticed some oil dripping by my front driver side wheel. I popped the hood and noticed oil splatter on the inside of the hood and around the air box of my Steeda intake. I cleaned it up, let her cool down and took her out for another session monitoring the oil pressure and temp, but nothing was out of norm. I finished the day up with about 5-6 more sessions and continually checked for more oil splatter. There was some, but no where near the amount after the first session.

Is this just blow by from too much oil after the change? Should I be concerned? I do not have a catch can. She only has a Steeda intake, Steeda mail tune and a cat-back exhaust.

Thanks in advance!

Definitely get yourself a catch can for modding this car.
