    So much failure at reading comprehension again

    <outburst removed> Do not speak as if you are the the expert on how my turbo and PCV system are setup. I installed this turbo kit myself. I know EXACTLY what it did and did not touch. I know how a PCV system works. I have researched PCV systems, and improved on the original kit from Prodigy with a custom setup myself while waiting for them to work out details for their final solution to ventilation. You have absolutely no basis for telling me how my ventilation system is setup, because you have clearly not seen how it is setup. Yes, my current setup vents to atmosphere.

The more boost created only serves to help create greater pressure differentials within the engine.
    And clearly you have no idea how a PCV system works on a boosted engine.

    If the intake manifold is under boost, where is the low pressure zone to draw the blow-by gasses out of the crankcase? The PCV valve closes under boost to avoid a massive boost leak into the crankcase (and boosting the crankcase would be bad). The only path for crankcase gasses to take to a lower pressure zone is through the breather hose, either straight to atmosphere, or to the the air box (or air filter itself, the way I'll have to set it up), depending on how you have it setup. When under boost, crankcase gasses reverse flow through the breather. Those gasses carry oil vapor with them.

    Please just never post anything in this thread ever again. Your only contribution to this thread has been to introduce confusion with incomplete, incorrect, and inconsistent claims/explanations about how things work. Go find another forum to shit on.

    Just like a how you explained Volumetric Efficiency...
