Oil In BOV and Airbox

I'm in the middle of deleting all emissions crap and noticed that there was oil in the stock bov from the secondary turbo that got all the way to the air box. Should I just order up a new one from Malloy?

My car is stock except missing emissions (soon), airbox mod and downpipe.

Majestic turbo in waco tx rebuilt my stockers. They spool great and pull hard. 1-800-231-5566 or (254)-757-3759.

You're much better off buying a set of low mileage stock twins from a reputable person on the forums. I bought mine for $175 shipped and they were in great condition. Make sure they were pulled off because the person was going single. Avoid buying a set from a blown engine, as the turbine may be damaged from an apex seal.
