**Turbo Question** S70 1999

Have you checked the PCV system for pressure? Pull out the dipstick with the engine warmed up and idling and see if you notice smoke coming out of it. A clogged PCV system will push oil out the seals of the engine, either at the oil filler cap, cam seals, or (worst of all) the rear main seal. That's what the oil all over the turbo in my picture with the non-leaking return line is from.

If that's your case, flooring it only makes it push more oil out the seals =) Any time I revved above 3, I smelled burning oil when my RMS was dying.
