Do you have a pic of the system you run? Just curious because this subject has been hashed over so many damm times it's just silly at this point.

Thanks.

You mean I have to give away all my secrets? LOL.

I will see if I can take pics of something I have done for you guys. But without pics, these questions would never be asked again.

what do i do about the stock vent on the passenger side that is where i have a hose running from to a puke tank now. I do notice that even at idle i see steam coming from under the hood near my puke tank. I am not sure that the seals are bad, that is just what my tuner said, and it is a very cheap ebay turbo, it just made sense cause after the boost hits about 16 it starts to slowly drop. and on the dyno i can feel on my breather hose it pushes a lot of pressure out under boost. if its not a problem with the turbo that would be great. also when the engine was cold it made 588hp to the wheels and then after a couple pulls and everything got warm and we noticed the oil coming out of the puke hose, it was only making 490hp, that
led us to believe, that with the turbo getting warm and expanding that the seals were leaking boost into the crankcase.

rick, I am also curious where you vented your valve covers at. If you could post a pic that would be awesome, I am planning to vent mine this weekend I could just like to know where to vent them at.
