ok guys today i just ran a hose form my pcv valve to my mountain dew bottle and now i read that i should run the line fromt he pcv valve to my preturbo pipe for soem vacuum, will running it to the mountain dew bottle only hurt anything and will i lose any perfomance doing it that way
thanks

 

There is a lot of different theories on this topic, the reason some dont like to run a pre turbo setup is b/c they dont want any oil giong back into the I/C and so there is the theory of introducing it back into the exhaust. My conclusion in part is that the PCV valve cannot be connected to the IM. So, Im gonna run a catch can from my breather port to the line attatched to the back of the block where the PVC valve used to be. From there Ill try a few different combos. Hope that helps.

 

---- it. just let it vent if your not worreid about emissions

 

wont the valve not open if you just vent it? or do you take the valve out..

 

will it still open venting into the atmosphere?

 

as long as there's more pressure in the crackcase the valve should open, I would just take it out though.

 

if i take it out will anythign bad happen like motor wise or so

 

k i'm gonna run the pcv to the catch can to the intake pipe off my turbo i was told this will enable the pcv valve to open and help seal my rings a lil what u guys think

 

i just took mine out and ran it like that for months with no problems. Probbaly not the best idea but it's better than having 10#'s of boost in the crankcase. Also you can smell oil through the vents which can get annoying...

 

I run mine this way but without the pcv
