Turbo oil drain problems w/AAM kit

Just curious but before you put the pump did you have a catch can or were you using the stock PCV setup while seeing smoke?

clamp a 3/8 fuel rated hose to the pcv, drape it over the charge pipe (on each side) and down that little gap in the wheel well. zip tie to an anchor point and run it down to where you can lightly tie it off at the subframe. as for the CCV, its your choice. you can catch can it ( i havent caught anything from the CCV as of yet) or add a filter at the CCV and a filter at the intake PCV take off for extra intake capacity.

the pcv is not the problem at all..

im yet another with a pool of oil (mine being on the passenger side).

ive considered adding a drain plug to the charge pipe down near the IC...

others i know with the aam kit seem to sing the same song...

i might look into a scavenge pump. Its annoying that you spend a good amount of money for a lack-luster product
