Message	There's a very good reason the PCV system has ports in front of the turbo. (Every turbo car that I've seen does the same thing btw) Do some research on why you'd want a very very big vacuum source to suck air out of the crankcase/heads and you'll see what I'm talking about. The vacuum source would be the turbocharger under boost of course. The benefits outweigh the negatives. I've talked to the techs at work and with other "engineering types" at length on this subject. a few benefits -blowby is instantly sucked out and combusted -the crank is almost in a vacuum under boost -engine seals stay in your engine (note when pcv valves fail the seals tend to blow) -rings are happier It doesn't suck donkey dick or whatever you think. The ONLY flaw is how low the vents are on the valve covers. rich '91 300ZXTT Stage 4+ Z32.org My Hero ghozttz32 = AIM
