stock pcv system runs on vacuum from the intake manifold.. there's a 1 way valve between the little breather box on the back of the block and the intake manifold.. works great on N/A cars, but as soon as your intake manifold sees positive pressure it no longer pulls vacuum from the breather box and your crank case pressure increases.. so I blocked off that breather box hole and vent my crank case from the valve cover.

you can find better write ups on catch cans elsewhere.. i'm tired and that's all i'm explaining for now :-\

lol That's all I wanted to know. I known about intake pressure and blah, but didnt know how to do it even with write up... I think I'm too lazy...

well, i've got a torque mount filled solid now with heavy duty construction adhesive.. and even though the top mount is still busted, the motor stays put at 10 psi all the way through 3rd and 4th, so i'm confident the stock replacement top mount will hold just fine now.

I think the shitty exedy stage 1 clutch isn't doing it's job anymore. it worked for a few pulls, now it feels like it's not holding up very good.

i'm going to try to get a video today or tomorrow before it completely takes a ---- :X

well, my clutch sucks ass, so I could only make a video of partial throttle.. and since I have a 7psi spring with no controller, it's not much of a ripper vid. :l

2nd gear roll into 3rd.. let off because of traffic. more to come
