Oil in turbo?

I noticed when installing my RFx & HPx kits that there was a little bit of oil in the turbo. What does this indicate or where might it be coming from?

It's probably from the CCV connection and the vapors coming out of the valve cover.

Search CCV Mod....

If there's oil present behind the wheels it could be a shaft seal, but most everybody without a CCV Mod has oil in the IC tubes & Boots as well as the turbo itself.
