Hello, i just got off the phone with procharger asking a question about evacuating the crankcase. I have the manuel and i have the pcv hose off the drivers side intake hooked up to the tube after the maf sensor and before the tb, and the hose coming out of the passenger side valvecover is basically hooked up the same way. That is the way the manuel says, but the guy from procharger told me those two need to be t'd and routed to the plastic inlet tube on the back of the blower. Does this sound right to anybody

 

yes...


you want the crankcase vent hooked up the the intake side of the blower.. not the pressure side.. or you will be blowing boost into the crankcase..

 

Exactly.

 

ok ill fix it tomorrow, should i run an air / oil seperator on that line, and what would be the best way to tap into the inlet tube

 

If you are driving it that way either don't drive it or fix it unless you like oil leaks.

 

im assuming anywhere on the inlet tube between the air filter and the blower will be sufficiant to tap into

 

Correct, as long as thats AFTER the MAF... You dont want oil vapor going through the MAF.

 

ok now im confused, if i tap into it after the maf, isnt that considered the pressure side of the blower, i thought i want to tap in the suck side

 

well...the stock ATI setup has the maf on the inlet side..

like this...

Air Filter--Maf---crankcase vent -----blower-----IC-----TB

most of us move the MAF to the pressure side

air Filter-----crankcase vent ---blower---ic---MAF--TB


I think what Fire67 was saying is if you have the maf behind the filter like the stock ATI setup then dont put the hose infront of the MAf..

 

i think i should be good then, I have mine
air filter --- Crankcase vent --- blower --- IC --- MAF--- TB. I also put a Air / oil seperator inline with my crankcase vent lines. I think i have it now, If something doesnt look right with the way i have it now please let me know.

 

Looks good to me. It was a good idea to use an air/oil seperator as well. Oil film gets nasty inside intercoolers and MAF sensors.
