I switched to an aftermarket intercooler and UICP and (when doing the install) noticed a lot of oil in my LICP. I realize some oil is going to get into the intake through the breather, but does this seem excessive to anyone or is this normal? I notice that I have to put in about quart of oil every 2 to 3 thousands miles and I don't notice any blue smoke from the exhaust. I don't notice this much oil in the UICP section. The engine is a built 2.4LR with almost 40k on it & stock turbo.

Without photos your "noticed a lot of oil" statement is subjective.

I do know that a quart of oil every 2-3k seems excessive.

 

You're too quick! I realized right after I posted that I forgot to include the photos but it updated it.

 

I'm assuming you don't have a catch can breather setup?

 

Correct.

 

There you go.

 

with no catch can set up... that doesnt look all that bad to me
