What did you do today to your 3/S?

That looks very interesting... I may end up looking into one myself if my KVs are still causing some of my smoking issues (along with 3SX return lines).

Close, you want to run the front KV with the stock PCV on the same line so the PCV can regulate how much air is sucked through at idle, and the KV will hold more boost than the PCV.

I went ahead and ordered the Dual PCV and Inline Adapter. Now I just need to order a vacuum gauge off amazon to set it up with...definitely going to post a review/create a thread once I get it installed.

I wonder if it totally negates the need for the small krank vent under boost...I would think so since it positively seals...maybe the small vent could just add a bit of extra protection to the new PCVs internals when boost happens...

Probably will have to repurpose those krank vents for cutch and brake booster valves or something now I guess, lol

I guess the question there is what boost those are rated for? I didn't really see anything on there about them being used in boosted applications. But you could probably combo one with a Krank vent and be just fine

Dual PCV widget, small Krank Vent, and twin air oil separators installed

Got the vacuum gauge hooked up to it to set idle/cruise air suck-age then I'm out for a cruise. Hoping for some good results...

Edit: inline dual PCV widget was definitely worth it. PCV suck-age is now fully controllable

Had a rear steering power cylinder seal replaced for FREE

My (semi) short term solution to trying to keep stealthy and hide the upgraded power. Long term will be a switch to SMIC and nice piping, but for now. Should do nicely.

I got the engine all back together and the rebuilt ECU installed, cranked it up and... injectors are not pulsing...blah!!

I need to dig into it more this weekend to see if I have spark and find out what is going on with the injectors now! if it's not one thing it's another with these damn cars...ugh!!
