Someone help me understand this: Why remove the PCV tube and re-route it into the intake track before the TB?

I think that is how it WAS, and then he put it into the intake MANIFOLD, itself - at least I hope so, otherwise when you would let of the gas, there'd be this sudden surge of pressure into the crank case until the BOV opens.

I'll draw a CORRECT tube routing on paper if someone will host it?

I ran it that way and even posted pics 2 months ago. No one piped up then and I have mentioned countless times within this thread on how I had it ran.

I have a t-bird turbocoupe PCV that seals very well installed that runs through an oil seperator and into the intake manifold now.

Those pics are of how it used to be run.

... and it seemed that Stazi didn't have issues with his 2.5L ran that way either.

Could I have caused my engine to crap out by running the PCV the way I had for an extended period of time?

Not sure.
I never ran my PCV to atmo, just the valve covers and I had a CONSTANT lean code (I think because of that).

Pressurizing the crankcase can't be good, but I am not sure if it would damage a cylinder or not.

EDIT: I am making a nerw post in this section with my vacuum schematic.

My PCV was never ran to atmosphere. Initially I had it ran into the intake mani, and the valvecover vents to atmosphere. I just had some small streetable issues with it that way, but tuning would have cleared that up.

I must have misunderstood what Tom was saying, but I switched over to the setup with them both tied into the intake pipe between the MAF & turbo. At first, I thought it was amazing how much better the car ran, but it was downhill from there
