Default dipstick pushed out one time

hey guys my dipstick seemed to push out on its own, im assuming under boost could this be an egr problem? i have not lost any power, and it only did it one time, some friends said it could be a problem with my egr any ideas?

what is your pcv setup? sounds like you are getting boost in the crankcase

yeah you need "no pcv" that tube going from your TB to your valve cover shouldnt be there. you need a breather on the valve cover where the oil fill cap goes and cap off each end of the tb and the 2 on the valve covers.
