I've got the same thing, tried replacing the cdr with no success. Seems to foul my air filter right off the bat to the point I'm about ready to run a drain tube out the back of the truck

I've actually never tried the tube, I'll look into it and if it's cheap and easy I'll probably just do it and give you an update

As "boogieman" said, it could be the oil feed leaking, either the part on the turbo itself or the connection to the oil pressure sender. Also it could be the oil drain which was the previous CDR tube, mainly due to not punching holes through the drain baffle. Good luck!

It could also be whatever seals up the hole in the intake where the CDR used to go. Maybe there's a slight boost leak there and a little bit of oil from the pressurized air is getting by there too. It could be coming through the turbo from the CDR or it could also be a seal inside the turbo that's starting to leak due to age or wear inside the turbo.
