I would rather introduce a little vapor into the engine than sit without my honda and pay $250 every year just to have the turbocharger rebuilt.
Im confused what does the PCV vent have to do with a turbo blowing a seal? You think the crank got pressurized enough (even while vented) to force oil out the oil pan and prevent the oil from draining off the turbo?
