I am uneducated about working on cars and need someone to tell me if this is a big deal or not.

I was going to instal my intake this evening and after pulling rubber intake hoses I notice oil sitting on the inlet in both turbos.

I wiped the passenger side before I took a picture but it looked about like the drivers side in which you can see oil collecting at the bottom.


So is this a big deal?

Thanks

Do you have an oil catch can? If not you may want to get one.
 
I actually just bought the ADd w1 and was planning on putting it on as well.

But I only bought one for the pcv side. Thinking I may get another!

My first question is are running any piggyback or tune? Or is car completely stock?
 
From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
11 k miles.

Lots of shorter commutes. 15-20 minutes.

Except for springs and wheels it is Completely stock.
These intakes are going to be my first modification of any car.
 
It's most important to put a catch can on the PCV side. Putting one on the breather side is a "nice to have". Given everything looks basically clean I wouldn't be worried. Some oil blow-by is always normal.
