Thanks Jeremy,

I hadn't thought of the drain.

Would that also contribute to an oil leak? I have noticed spots on my garage floor. I cleaned the oil trap, hoses and everything else I can think of that might increase the crankcase pressure. I checked where the drain goes into the block, but it seemed dry to me. I'm hoping against hope probably, that it isn't the rear main seal.

Wouldn't turning up the boost decrease the longevity of the engine? It would seem extra stresses would be placed on it.

Thanks for your advise.
