If you are having problems with a stock pcv valve then try a supra pcv. A 93 through 97 turbo supra pcv valve has very close to the same dimensions as ours except they are straight not 90 degrees. No biggee just run a longer hose to curve it. I have been using one for about 2 years now and love them compared to our stock one. Also i have my catch can set up a little bit different than most people . I attached the catch can(with a breather) where the pcv valve normally goes. Then i attached the pcv valve where the breather tube used to be. This way you have a bigger outlet for the crankcase to let pressure out while still maintaining a pcv system. Look in the pic at the blue hoses to see what i mean. .jpg




The supra crowd has the same problems with their pcv valves as we do with ours. They still do not stop all oil and blow by, and youre still only applying vacuum to the crankcase during idle and decel. Supra owners also insist their stock pcv still has the same problems of blocking all boost from entering that it seems like every over stock pcv has

Once you go into boost, youre basically hoping that enough crankcase pressure is released from the one port. This may or may not be enough -- the supra crowd says its not, and they say breather filters on the crankcase ports are the #1 cause of blown main seals. A 3.0 i6 revving to 8K rpm is likely building a lot more crankcase pressure than most of us, but a lack of vacuum in the crankcase still has the same result -- luckily most of us just push dipsticks out before seals (most of the time anyways...)

This is why Im ditching the old vent to atmosphere setup I ran for so long -- it just isnt adequate.
