Pouchy?
Oil in the charge pipes means that either the turbo needs a rebuild, or you need a restrictor, or you're routing the crankcase breather into the inlet of the turbo?

Re: turbo is very pouchy, & oil in the pipes= what???? (locash)
yeah, like really slow, or no power. my friend just bought a wrx & she said is was acting up, so i took it for a spin & it was WAY SLOW. i took the intercooler off & i saw oil in the intercooler pipes. Luckily a guy at the shop has a subie wagon, we took his for a spin & it was a ton of power compared to the hers.
they both have intakes
So, i didnt really know what oil in the pipes ment, i just know that its prob not good!

Sounds like oil is blowing past the seals. Are you running a oil restrictor?
