Just installed my turbo and got it tuned on crome now i got oil leak from back of the block i think its from the breather box.
Setup: D16z6 on a dsm t25 turbo at 8 psi stock everything running dsm 390 injectors.
car was not leaking any oil before the turbo installed. i searched and found this https://honda-tech.com/forums/showth...6+catch&page=5
you think i need to install a catch can set up?
if so is can i get away with running the valve cover vent that normally goes to the intake tube to a catch can and deleting the pcv valve and then running that line where the pcv valve would normally go to the catch can and then plugging the intake manifold where the pcv valve line would normally go.
lol after reading that its pretty confusiung.... ok so what im saying is valve cover to catch can. delete pcv and plug intake manifold. run block box breather box to catch can instead of pcv (which will be deleted.)
first turbo build so use lube if youre going to flame me lol

are u sure that when u reinstalled your oil pan after putting your oil return in that it sealed properly. did u use a new gasket or reuse the old one?

Got new oil pan gasket. All turbo oil fittings not leaking. And dip stick doesn't blow out. Looks like the breather box
