I have an oil leak that seems almost non-existant in calm driving. After boosting a while the car stinks like oil. I have had oil make its way from the front down along the oil pan rail and drip off the starter to the cross over making the stink.

Does the intake gasket pass oil at all? I dont see why oil would leak worse under boost.
 
iread something on one the boards, about when you turn the boost weigh up ,you can expect oil leaks to show up
 
Get a PCV Check Valve and some breathers for the Valve covers. I had the same problem. It would blow oil onto the cross over and create a smoke screen before the check valve and breathers. Now its dry as bone under booooost. :D
 
I have a breather on the passenger valve cover. It isn't the source of the oil because its not dripping. I think it must be coming out somewhere else.
