[QUOTE="frogeye1975, post: 216038, member: 7554"] Hello ppl. There are a few questions that I hope some of you guys here can help. I was doing some reading on forced induction cuz I'm interested to get my 850 T5 done up. I came across these few issues; 1. The intercooler piping for almost ALL turbo cars will have slight or a thin film of oil residue inside it due to the oil vapour that condensed in the intercooler. Some suggest that adding a oil catch tank will do the trick and avoid clogging the intercooler. My question is; besides the cost factor, why is it that stock cars like my Volvo, SAAB, or some JDM models doesn't have a ready oil catch tank if this is such an effective method. 2. Does a recirculating BOV and a vent to atmosphere BOV still have the same issue of having oil residue in the intercooler piping? I have friends who messed up their engine bay due to the BOV 'spraying and squirting' oil all over...weird Hope to hear from u guys soon..cheers and drive safely.. [/QUOTE]
