Setting up my PCV. Will this work? I'm going to plug the TB and run a breather on the front passenger side valve cover port. Install a check valve and Home Depot catch can between the manifold and pcv system to help prevent boost from entering the crackcase.
Will this setup work and would it be a good idea to leave the stock check valve on the car or take it out.
Any help would be highly appreciated. After reading all the threads on PCV sytems I just got frustrated and gave up
BTW, I'm going to be running 13 lbs of boost and where could I pick up one of these Check Valves?

I got one from autozone... can't remember the part # though. It's a little silver one. They should have a section in the store with PCV valves of different sizes and shapes. I'd just bring a section of your vacuum line into the store and get one that fits on the line, thats how I did mine.

I wish that there was a sticky that gave a definitive answer in details with pics for each application...Such as front mount turbo, STS, Procharger or other centris, and other applications... I'm a little confused myself and I'm only dealing with a Procharger...
Oh BTW, you gonna have the 76 in for the big day this weekend??
