the idi engines have lots of blow by, any motor with 21.5 to one compression will. if they are looking at it at idle, they are wrong. when you rev it up, the CDR valve will remove the blowby.. the intake side of the turbo and intake manifold will always have oil on it due to the CDR valve, unless you run a RDT.
