Plan to decrease Crankcase Pressure, Pics included Options

[erics1one]

Well I think oil is being pushed out my turbo seals due to postive crankcase pressure, and I need to find a way to decrease the pressure. Theres a few different ways to go about doing this.


PCV Valve -> Turbo Intake AND/OR
PCV Valve -> Intake Pipe (my IC)

Currenty my PCV valve has a breather:


You can see the PCV Valve -> Turbo Intake setup here, which can be found on the stock 3sgte:



Some tap their PCV to their intake. The Injen Intake kit comes with a tap already in the pipe:



So I've been trying to decide what setup would be best with the equipment I have (5SFTE). Been talking to 'Byron' from mr2oc.com, he's knows his stuff when it comes to PCV stuff. I've been leaning towards hooking both intakes up. Was told here:

...that the small hose from valve to intake would decrease pressure during idle, while the larger hose from valve to turbo would decrease pressure during boost. Since I have a turbo, should I just connect the large hose to the turbo? Just connect a small hose to the intake? Split the PCV valve in two, running to both the Intake, and Turbo?



A: 5/8' hose to turbo
B: smaller hose to intake
C: one way valve

or you can hook it right up to the intake piping, before the turbo, with no catch can.  i dont have a can on mine, and my piping stays clean. the only thing that gets some oil is the turbo compressor, and i cant see that as a bad thing, since its lube.

Kinda flawed thinking - you have oil going into your intake & compressor which may not damage your compressor but it certainly isnt helping. The oil isnt stopping there its going into your intercooler piping and if it can make the journey it will go into your throttle body. My point is that its replacing air, no 2 objects can hold the same space at the same time. So consequently, its hurting performance and probably hurting your intake temps.

you can blame toyota for my flawed thinking, cause thats how the stock 3s setup is. ive taken my ic piping out many times and there is not a drop of oil in it.
