crank case venting...

i have all the stuff to do the vent system that is welded to the exhaust. my questions is since i have a STS turbo (**** off if you want to dog it) would i be able to still use that system placed before the turbo? i know there is more pressure in the exhaust thats the only reason i ask. if it cannot be done il just buy a pump or something. thanks

STS turbo's suck :P (just kidding, I actually like the STS turbo's). There actually might be enough pressure in the exhaust to force exhaust into the engine, but I dont know for sure, call the STS guys and ask them.

yea im just getting tired of everyone knocking the system when they dont have it. its not like its a turbonator.... i put down right at 400 RWHP on a stock motor with my sts. anyways think im gonna go price a few pumps b/c i really dont want to push out seals and have leaks after the first 15psi pass. thanks man

At 15 psi boost, you'll be seeing 45 psi exhaust pressure with the STS. I don't know about you, but I sure don't want 45 psi in MY crankcase!
