this is at least the 3rd or 4th oil change/filter change since i first noticed the oil. Dez changed it at least once, I had it changed locally a year ago, and W2W changed it a few months ago. I'll clean it up again and keep looking around

That's at least a 5 gallon fire, and at $4.00 a gallon, that's another $20 you'd have to spend on it.

Funny how that relates to what I did at work today.
3 ounces of C4 in in the cab of a little Mazda. I think 1lb ought to work for your application.

About that oil leak... Check the oil cooler connection to the block as well. Its up there above the filter on the side somewhere.

For what its worth, mine has a little oil like that too. Not enough to drop on the ground and pool... but always a little oil up there. I spray it off with brake cleaner every oil change.

I'm just diving into the boost world myself with a Radix M112, but now you have me all worried about all of the different problems that I might run into with my project!

Going boost won't cause ur problem - its more about who does it!!! As I've said before, this isn't applied physics, its just torqueing bolts to spec and not overlooking simple ******* steps and parts. Just do the work urself, u cudn't possibly **** it up worse than some of the mental midgets that claim to be "performance specialists". (see ICS Performance for all ur bmx bike needs)....SORRY FOR THE RANT AND HIJACK DAN
