help plealse - oil in the engine bay problem

[mickeystewz8]

i have been on this site for a few months now and have been searching and i have found many tips and help from already made forums...but this one i have not found

i am driving normallly (without goin into my boost) and then i want to "show off" for my girlfriend and then i floor it and after a bit my car starts smoking...burning oil...well i pull over and notice that there is oil spilled all over on the valve cover, turbo cover, (basically the right side of the engine bay) i also notice that my dipstick is pulled up but i know that i put it back in all the way so maybe oil is coming out of there...well i was wondering why that is. i thought it was b/c i didnt have an oil catch can but i got one and i think it is working so i dun know why it is still doing this...any help would be wonderful...and if there is another forum discussing this then could you direct me to that forum...thanks so much

Seems like your crankcase is pressurizing. Something to do with a PCV valve or something somewhere I believe, not sure exactly, search it. Good luck.

Curious, what was the problem?

on my oil catch can i put a hose on it from the pcv to the intake and i didnt have a filter on it...so the oil cc was getting pressure from the intake and spitting it back into the pcv...basically the cc was working backwards...but now i have a filter and re wired the cc correctly
