Yea you do with just about any boosted setup...boosted setups cause excess pressure in the crank area because some pressure escapes the rings. This excess pressure needs to be vented into an area that doesn't get recirculated into the motor.

you can pressurize the system and see if you hear oil gurgling...that's an easy way to tell if a seal is good or not.

nope, the turbo is fine. no blue smoke going thew the intercooler or coming from the blow off.
its the rings. just started doing this so should last me till income tax when the build will have started anyways.
so shes still good for the dc meet and the jdm dec 12.
