I recently bought HKS SSQBov and today i saw that there is actualy some oil in it, and where it was letting air, it left some oil marks. When i bought it from the guy used, it had oil in it, and now i saw it on my car. So is there sopose to be oil coming out of it??? When i had turbo xs bov, i didn't see this but i don't know. What do you guys think?

Sounds like your turbos oil seals are on the way out.

What made them go out? I mean recently everything was fine.

This is pretty normal for an old turbo. Normally you don't notice it, but with an open-vented BOV the oil has somewhere to escape and be seen. My previous car had an oily intake for a coupla years before the oil seals finally shat themselves in a HUGE cloud of white smoke!
