Anyone ever seen this? I pulled my 3.4 Whipple to get the car ready for the 3.0 Whipple. I have supercharger oil all over the intercooler, inside the intake manifold, and all over the rotors.

Clean it up really good to make sure it's from the super charger. If it is be happy its not a bigger issue.
On a side note I pulled off my 3.4 a few weeks ago and everything was dry as a bone. I'll. E doing a 3.0 too?

It's definitely Supercharger oil (blue oil). I'm just curious as to how it's EVERYWHERE. It must have been robbing me of power.
The supercharger holds a tiny amount of oil, like 4oz. If it leaked at all it should be empty. I've never head of a Whipple leaking internally but I guess it's possible. Usually they leak out the snout seal. The most common source of oil in the intake tract is from the PCV system.
The PCV was deleted and I plugged the manifold. Yeah I didn't think it was right either seeing the blower oil all over the place. It must have happened very recently.
