Turbo Oil Leak and the Debate on Crankcase Pressure (2 Viewers)

[SNLC]

The real engineering was done by Toyota and they say it doesn't need one.

Because it ads an additional service component that idiots owners won’t service, ie causing problems?

HAHA Toyota also designed the best size of the dump pipe and exhaust but guess what.... they got that wrong too. They also designed really sh1t combustion bowls in the pistons for the early 1HD-T, also got that wrong. They designed diff's that are made from cheese. The list could go on..... Just because Toyota designed it doesn't mean it's the best or can't be improved upon.

They also designed it for a lot less boost than I'm running.

The more boost you run the more blowy you get and the better your breather system needs to flow.
The guys at Gturbo I guarantee run more boost than you and recommend you don't use one.

Their system leaves a very dirty oily mess in the intake downstream of the PCV hose.

Plenty of chatter and pics on the Web of intakes badly cakeed up with oil

Healthy engines only produce a fine vapour which is ingested and burnt without issue. If you've got worse you've got a problem.
A catch can is trying to fix the symptom instead of the problem.

Because it increases crankcase pressure, increases points of failure and has no benefit.
