[QUOTE="gqneon, post: 14911629, member: 172453"] Weirdest thing. This afternoon, since I was putting in my stainless clutch line, I went about hacking up my JLT oil catch can and with new hose and fittings plumbed a custom PCV route for my D1SC setup. Instead of using the two PCV inlets to the intake tube like the instructions (like I had) I ran the PCV from the passenger side behind the engine to the driver side PCV. Just before the driver side PCV, I put a 5/8" tee and dropped it down towards the strut tower, where I tied in the 3/8" vacuum line from the y splitter behind the engine. I then ran the single 5/8" PCV line from there to the oil catch can (with new 5/8" barbs on both sides) as a single inlet to the intake tube fitting before the blower inlet. I just figured if it worked it would reduce the amount of oil making it to my intake tract and maybe reducing the potential for lowered octane effects. What I found was that it smoothed out about 90% of the surging I was experiencing at the 0-5 inch of vaccum mark mid throttle. It's not totally gone, but it was SO MUCH better and smoother. I stopped and checked it and told myself it was all in my head. So I took it back out later with my wife and she said the same thing. I checked all the fittings, and again, everything was tight. Not what I was shooting for, but hell I'll take it. That's a hell of a bonus for getting the oil catch can back in my loop. Now, rather than surge, surge surge surge surge at mid throttle, if it finds that spot, it's just for a second and it's gone. Just thought I'd share that around in case anyone was thinking of doing anything similar. I just hated that ProCharger had me putting a rubber hose onto my PCV valves. It was killing me. So instead of cutting up the original parts, I bought hose, elbows, and tees and used Ford PCV clips. Worth every minute, and much cleaner too.
