Thread: venting a turbo engine

    One of the lessons I learned very quickly from my 'last pass' is that a pcv valve doesn't work on a turbo engine
    How do you guys vent your engines so oil doesn't come out of the breathers?

    Ya could use one of these. There is a better model from other mfgs that has dual inlet and dual breathers. If I find it, I'll post it.

    Breathers like the ones above work fine as long as:
    1. There is foam inside.
    2. There is a baffle to keep the rocker from spraying oil directly into the breather.
    3. Your rings are good.

    The big named turbo engine builders use two of those tall billet breathers per valve cover.
