Are you using teflon tape, pipe dope, or ???

I actually haven't removed the fitting since I received it. I'm waiting to hear back from Sasha on exactly what he did to swap those fittings and if I should go back with teflon or not.

Really getting kind of frustrating that I managed to install an entire turbo kit and all the electrical and the only thing that seems to be wrong is oil leaks that we did nothing to cause.

I had a leaky fitting on the original filter relocator. The fitting had teflon tape installed on it when I received it. I ended up removing the fitting and redoing the teflon tape then everything was a-ok.
