PCV System with the TRD Supercharger

[landtank]

I'm arguing that your account of how this mod fixed your issue is of any relevance.

Well, it's my DD and its working.

you understand that if the intake plenum is under pressure it's hard to suck anything in, right.

I think the system reversed in his case. His PCV was stuck open so when the blower pressurized the intake manifold, air went from the PCV tube, into the crank and oil started blowing out the breather and into the throttle body. This mod didn't really fix his issue. A new PCV did that. That's at least my theory.

This was a great read, thank you @DARKNESS . Now I'm curious if this should be done on a turboed rig

Ha, no clue. Probably the same thing? It's forced induction either way.

Also, I recently added a catch can to my setup if anyone's interested. I pulled off one of the elbows post supercharger at one point and it was coated with oil, which is why I decided to add it.

Not sure how much oil it prevents from going through the blower, but it is catching some.

Wound up making a custom bracket and putting it by the windshield washer fluid tank.

Custom Bracket for Catch Can

Decided to install a catch can and couldn't find a great spot for it to mount so I decided to make a custom bracket. Basically took 3 shelf brackets I had lying around and cut and welded them to mount to the screws that hold in the washer fluid reservoir. It also connects to an unused threaded...

Dan, which way had you been running it?
