Default Oil coming out if forge splitter valve

So today I upgraded to the forge splitter valve and I have them set up for the hybrid blow off and diverter valve. After driving around with them for a while I decided to check all the connections at the rubber hoses and noticed a fairly decent amount of oil had sprayed out of them. It looked like a fine mist was spraying out everytime the valve opened up. Is this normal or do I have to worry about a major problem with the turbos

Definitely not normal. Sounds like your turbos might be on their way out if you are dumping oil into the intake ducting.

Pull the lower pipe off the intercooler and see if any oil pours out. If so I hate to say it but the turbos are probably done for.
