   Hi guys, just removed my raceland forced intake and found oil inside the chrome pipe. I assume its come from the breather pipe...??
   
   Is this normal?
   
   Could it cause damage?
   
   
   
   Cheers

   Yes, its normal mate. They all do it. It wont cause any damage cus they do it as standard
   
   To get round the problem you can fit an oil catch tank.

   Its a bit stupid really. The oil builds up in the throttle body.
