I recently just installed a turbo on my car. I made 300 hp and 220 tq on the dyno. Now i have oil in the spark plugs. I changed the valve cover gasket and seals. Still have some oil coming through. Someone said i might need a catch can for the higher oil pressure? Could this solve the problem? Thanks in advance

what car is it? my accord has "lower spark plug seals" that require you to take the rocker assembly out to get at.

It is a 96 acura integra ls

i'll have to try to look it up, but just so you know, your engine's oil system doesn't get more pressurized when you make more power. Your oil psi is still the same as it was when your car was stock.

yes you do.I was recently in the same boat like.320hp and oilpan rear main seals valve cover seals leak on by one after replacing another.vent through the back of the block or valvle cover either way.symptom on mine were worse had oil in the chamber blew smokes from exhaust.After catchcan everything went away.

a catch can is always a good idea.
