two hoses from taped valve cover into catch can

one hose from stock hole in back of valve cover (passenger side) into valve cover

1 big hose into intake pipe attached to intake side of turbo (suction)..

catch can sits high in engine bay..

I have noticed a small stream of golden liquid inside the intake pipe.
The inlet on the intake pipe is attached to a hose which pulls from the catch can..

I wiggled the turbine, and there does not seem to be any movement at all.

I am currently loosing oil somewhere and I cannot track where...

800 km's after oil change it was down to half on the dip stick. I check it every few days... It happened rather suddenly

This oil consumption to me has a strong correlation with excessive boosting/ riding out the rpms...

 

maybe remove/cap the line on the intake pipe. possibly the suction is pulling oil into the turbo and burning off?

how much whp are you making? you might be ok with just two lines off the valve cover.

 

I am only running 250whp and 14psi

 

2 lines right from the Vc to the can will be fine.

 

Ok can you correct my logic?

I figured that 2 lines from the valve cover was not going to be sufficient...

which is why i had a line running into the intake pipe before the intake side of the turbo. my logic was this would create a vacuum and pull the "blow by"..

 

People use vac. assisted setups all the time but for what your doing it's not needed. I'm making just a bit more then you and have had 2 lines from the VC since day one. I've emptied the can 3 times in a year and there was hardly anything in there all 3X. If you notice most people run 2 -10 lines off the VC. Others will do the same and then run 2 more to the back of the block from the can. It's all in how far you want to take it but I think you'll be fine with 2 of the VC.

 

so is it a bad idea to have it set up like I have currently?

and my catch can is not vented either, will it still be sufficient to just run the 2 lines from VC into non vented can?

 

thanks for all the input.

 

You want the can to have a filter on it so the pressure has some place to go.

 

if you are using a non-vented can than you pretty much have to use a vac assist. if not then there is no where for the pressure to go.

IMO run two lines off the VC to a vented can and call it a day. simple and effective.
