Downside is you risk too much pressure buildup and nay or may not break your current seals.

I would only use that solution as a last resort.

If your blower is stock internals and still requires 4oz of oil, I would stay with the 4 oz.
But if its still leaking, I would try a tiny less and see how that works.

I only confidently put less oil because the impeller volume size is a bit bigger than stock v3 sci impeller.

Now what I will say is I have only revved it to maybe 4 or 5rpms at max I think 6rpm by accident in low gears.

From that I still have yet to see any oil leaks but I hope I dont see any oil leaks in the high RPM range!!!
I am just now getting the 928 Motorsports impeller and bearings/seal upgrade/replacement and I'm not clear on how that changes the volume of oil required in the supercharger as you mention.
