Hey guys,
Is it common for the turbo engines to get blow-by?
I got a bit of oil in the cooler and the parts surrounding?...
Im thinking time for a catch can.. unless my turbots are leaking and oil is being blown in the cooler?

I get it 
a little too much for my liking, I was assuming that one of my turbo's had a blown seal.

Mine has a bit of blowby in the pipes an IC, nothing to the extent of pooling though.
Even if you motor is great, ie non worn rings, running high boost will cause some blowby.
Im buying a catch can this week and doing a stealth install.

Brendan, HIRISK had a catch can setup on his. Maybe try contacting him to find out why and how he went about it. He's on here occasionally!
