PCV Issues. First post, have looked and looked for an answer and get 1,000 different solutions. In need of a final solution for the pcv. current status-
2001 SS A4
on3 performance 76mm non ac kit with upgraded goodies.
Speed Inc TU1.5 Turbo cam.
brian tooley .660 valvespring kit
Hardend Pushrods.
Fast 3 bar Map sensor.
60lb Injectors.
255lph Intank pump
255lph inline pump
-6 feed aeromotive fpr.
-6 return
aeromotive 1:1 fpr.
griffin radiator
dual deral pusher fans.
stock 10 bolt. stock 4l60e with 3600 stall & 24,000 cooler.
I Have 2 Mike Norris catch cans. It is installed like shown in the attatched picture. EXCEPT I have a ls6 pcv so it is going into there instead of coming from the rear drivers side. Regardless every time I attempt low boost it blows the plug out of the rear drivers side valve cover (plug for old pcv system). How should I go about preventing this. right now I have a mail order tune and have to fix this problem before it gets an actual dyno tune. I am thinking about removing the 2 mike Norris cans and buying 1 Mightymouse "race" can, welding 10- fittings onto each valve cover to run into the can and cap off all other pcv ports.
my question by doing this; would it cause it to act like it has a vaccum leak or is the can actually sealed till it gets to a certain pressure? would I still run clean air from the turbo housing into the pcv?
