off topic Lancer blowing out of dipstick

Sorry for posting this here. But you guys are really the only thing I can think of.

Anyway, I got a Lancer ralliart 2.4l with a RIPP supercharger kit. It is blowing a little oil from dipstick at idle and more and more under load and out of oil cap.

I checked the pcv valve = good

Compression=good

head gasket looks to be good, no mixing of oil and coolant

Well, any help would be cool.

too much crank case pressure. you could get a breather oil cap. you may need a retune.

Sounds like its not getting enough crank case ventilation. Do you have breathers or what on the case/valve cover? Might want to run the tubes back to the intake to create some vacuum, or get a vacuum pump if its really that bad.

your rings are shot,cranking pressure will be okay,but under boost they are not sealing

could be something stupid and simple like it was installed incorrectly and there is a vacuum line that is run to charge side of the blower and not the suction side.

was it factory installed?
