Default oil spraying out during 18+ psi boost

During high boost, small amounts of motor oil is sparying out of this "nozzle" (excuse my lack of knowledge) What is going on and should I be concerned?

Blow by gases, probably worn out piston rings or blown ring lands.

thats part of your positive crank ventilation system. get a catch can and youll be good.

by the way whats your setup? 18+psi is kinda high for someone who doesnt know about the pcv system....Im not bashing on you, just looking out for ya. I know some shops will lead you in the wrong direction to make a buck or two. are you running some type of FMU other than a vafc?

How does blow by result in pressure getting into the head?

How do you think oil drains from the head back into the pan?

I think the oil is due to the unplugged MAP sensor.

A breather will just get all oily. Get the Endyn catch can setup.

And don't jump the gun and think it is due to bad rings or cracked ring lands. This is common on high boost/hp setups.

Looks ok...went and boosted HARD for 15 min on the highway at 18 psi with sock tied to strut bar, than checked, no oil...just hot gases burning the sock. Than parked and revved some more to make sure:

Well you were in neutral there, not even boosting it. So I guess your saying it happens at 0 load or vaccuum?
