Veteran CEG'er
I have attached an article found by Blackcoog that argues in favor of bypassing the PCV system for 99+ Ford engines which suffer from oil vapor blowby being recirculated into the intake. Why haven't I come across anybody here with a turbo having to modify their PCV system?
PCV Bypass said:Lets talk about supercharged or turbo applications. We think the dual vent system is the way to go in any
high boost or blowby application because the general flow requirements through the PCV system are restricted
by the small size of the lines and the small aperatures of the vent and PCV valve. This is especially
critical on the 99-up models which already have PCV systems which may be seriously diluting the air/fuel octane
with oil vapor.
The drawback to venting an engine’s blowby is that the breathers will eventually become oily and start to drip.
The answer is not pretty but it is effective. Periodically remove the breathers, wash them in solvent or K&N
filter cleaner to remove the oil, reinstal them, and wipe off your valvecovers.
