i just got my SR back up and running again , but now i've noticed something odd. after i've driven the car around for a few minutes and then check under the hood there seems to be some liquid coming out of the BOV. i've revved it high enough to actually "blow off" but nothing comes out. it only does it after its been under a load. i'm not sure what the liquid is but it has me nervous. before i changed turbos, manifold, and went to an external WG i didnt have this problem. any ideas??thanksLee

did you buy a new turbo or used? its possible the turbo could be leaking oil. check the inside of your intercooler pipes.

IC piping is bone dry.upon closer inspection i think its PS fluid that is dripping and getting thrown up onto the fender well. just went to sonic and now there is a small puddle of the same liquid right under the front sway bar directly under the PS pump.

I'd check your ps lines for leaks at the clamps or cracking. That is if it's ps fluid and not oil blow-by.
