Re: DIY Two Way PCV System How-To (HoMedepoT style)
 

alright i got a question, i dont feel like getting a catch can and all that ---- so would it be alright if i just ran the crank case vent to turbo inlet and stuck a oil separator.

With the price of that kit I wouldn't see why you wouldnt just do it right and make your own catch can. Pretty much there is no way to get around modifing your PCV setup without using a catchcan. Either you run a vented catch can or you run a sealed catchcan while utilzing the beroulli effect catch can. I did my entire setup with the sealed catch can for under $100.

Re: DIY Two Way PCV System How-To (HoMedepoT style)
 

isnt the oil separator the samething as a catch can?

the aircompresor filter is only $10

Re: DIY Two Way PCV System How-To (HoMedepoT style)
 

Im wondering if you really need a different pcv system for low boost (6-8lbs)... if your not in boost for long periods of time.

Re: DIY Two Way PCV System How-To (HoMedepoT style)
 

If your PCV valve fails than you run the risk of pressurizing the crankcase. Than you will have opposing pressure on the top and bottom of the piston...not a good thing. Don't risk your engine for under $100 to do it 100% correct. you can do it for like $30 if you really want to. No point to risk what you got for such cheap $$$.

has anyone tried using the smaller filter, the one with 1/4" ports

Re: DIY Two Way PCV System How-To (HoMedepoT style)
 

Hmmm...What do I do if my car doesn't have a PCV valve...I want to solve or at least help my crank pressure problem I have a 4AGE with a T25 running 8PSI

Is it just me or do the pictures not work?

Re: DIY Two Way PCV System How-To (HoMedepoT style)
 

usually the pics stop working after about 15 years or so since the last post.

Home depot is awsome, made me a 4in PVC intake. proforms well and sounds badasss tooo :y

Re: DIY Two Way PCV System How-To (HoMedepoT style)
 

Nobody cares about your stupid intake, jackass.

Now resize your ------- avatar, tool.

Re: DIY Two Way PCV System How-To (HoMedepoT style)
 

So heres a quick 5 minute diagram of the proper setup according to Projekteg, Its the same as fook's original idea, but with a check valve on the vent hose between the T-fitting and the IM.

Attachment 21373

It makes perfect sense to me, but I'm new to this....Can someone with uncontrollable knowledgablilities tell me if this setup is right? Will it work with proper check valves that wont leak?

Re: DIY Two Way PCV System How-To (HoMedepoT style)
 

For those of you asking a catch can set-up should just be considered part of your turbo set-up, period. I just ignored the oil leaks on my car since I've got it until a few days ago, when every oil seal in the car broke (loosing 1.5 quarts every hour) and I was only at 9 psi on cold, cold days. Oh, well at least I get to replace the autozone special clutch while I'm there.

Re: DIY Two Way PCV System How-To (HoMedepoT style)
 

ok but what if there is no intake.....just straight filter on the turbo......and no slashcut in the downpipe??

Re: DIY Two Way PCV System How-To (HoMedepoT style)
 

here is my setup

can

https://www.homemadeturbo.com/attach...-style-occ.jpg notice its baffled so it actually does something O0 lol the key is to get it to reverse direction and slow down

the routing of the lines

https://www.homemadeturbo.com/attach...chcansetup.jpg
notice the 90* angles in the intake it helps force air where its supposed to go and draw it out of the can


i think it would work great in both boost and vac, here is the reason for PROVIDING air to the valve cover and not drawing it out, in order to draw air out it has to come in somewhere so here is how PCV syhstem works stock, my system works like stock :)

I've written an article on crank case ventilation here :

DIYEFI.org Forum - View topic - Crank Case Ventilation

Please be as critical as you can be (Trust HMT, sure can!), I'm interested to see the information and formatting etc be as good as possible. I hope it helps people in the future :-)

i took this pic and modified it to what i think would work for a slash cut tube in exhaust method...

Could i run this setup but instead of the slashcut to the downpipe can i run it to the intake?

Re: DIY Two Way PCV System How-To (HoMedepoT style)
 

yea aslong as you keep the one way valve

that some sick ---- nice thinking dude

these catch can setups drive me crazy, whats the simplest most effective way to do it once I go boost?

^ ---- simple, when u got the right way in front of u.

good write up.

what are the best one way valves to use?

That exhaust thing wont work if u hav a cat. we need to use some kind of vanturey(sorry spelt wrong) system. use exhaust to make vac. see what i can come up with.

PVC system.
 

that would only work if it was set up after the cat. would'nt it?

that would only work if it was after the cat.(if u hav one that is).

that would hav to be after the cat would'nt it?

I have a catch can set up for my rocker cover which is working fine
But i want too fit a catch can for the bottem end now

i will have one feed from the black box(no PCV) and one feed from one of the oil plugs at the back/bottem of the block too the can

Do i need too put a vacuum line from the turbo intake too the can or just put a small filter on the can so that it can go in too the atmosphere?

cant see pics

I alway have some DIY car parts,turbo car and turbo cars.

Your Forced Induction is so useful that I collect other information from Zencar electric turbo supercharger

You can find out the Way PCV System from electric superchargers vs turbo.
