Very little oil comes out the hose onto the chain. I blocked off my stock breather and went to this system which worked perfect with my teams Funny Bike back in the Late 70s , So it has had the acid test.

Another question is, how much oil do you have in the outlet of your turbo? The reason I ask is, some should be expected especially if it a street driven bike. The compressor side piston seal which is what keeps oil in your bearing housing and out of your compressor housing and is designed to handle a pressure differential between the oil pressure it sees on one side and boost pressure on the other. If the bike sees more idle and low boost time due to part throttle, the pressure difference is much greater and thus oil will seep into the compressor housing. The only way to prevent this would be a greater amount of time riding at boost pressures that are closer or above the oil pressure witnessed by the oil seal. Even if you clean it out, continued part throttle riding will just allow it to return. Oil residue is common on street turbo applications and is normal. No harm is done. Now if you have a lot of oil in you compressor housing then you have an issue to correct. If you have any additional turbo questions you can PM me. I am in a deer stand this weekend, so I may be slow to reply.

So the only vent you have is on the valve cover?

I looked at both of them places and they only seem to have the block off covers.
I do want to keep the kick starter on my bike.
I need to find one of these covers that I can use as a oil return and still be able to use the kick start. Any ideas???

MR Turbo kits have the oil return into the kick start cover and retain the kickstarter function
