Mine did this, but i ended up changing my turbo around and it stopped. You'll find a bit of oil in the hoses anyway. Is it alot coming out?

Yes it is, as the breather recirculates into the metering head.

do you have to have the breather connected to the metering head.#can i run the breather pipe that usually goes to the metering head to one of those mini piper cross breather filters.?
id really like to not have it running to the metering head
