Hi All, I forgot to take pics, but Pat can of the after. Yes, the drill/tap spot on the front charge pipe was upstream of the barb for the cleanside and was over powering the flow when cruising and in boost. So we moved the cleanside separator line and fitting to as close to the air filter as possible and cured it. This also allows no drilling for the front tube!!! Just use the existing OEM barb the cleanside tube did attache to. I also recommend cleaning the CAC (remove to do) first as he still has a good bit in his CAC.
Cheers!
First off: I know Pat didn't have much oil in his can...from what I see in your post I'm guessing because of the constant hyper-vacuum to the clean side separator the coalescing material in the separator was working overtime and the evacuated mixture was being either returned to the oil or fed through the intake? Due to a lack of vacuum through the rear PCV, this was acting as the constant "clean-side"?
Second: So for those of us (me) that have already installed; is there something we should be doing?? Instructions please.
Third: If I'm reading your post correctly; you attached the front-side outlet, from the can to the oem vacuum barb that the clean side separator WAS attached to. Then, extended the clean side separator closer to the air filter to decrease vacuum. Correct?
Questions:
- Does the outlet hose from the can for the front side now only have one port instead of two? ...OR does it T-into the oem barb, then go to the rear intake pipe drill/threaded fitting?
- Will another hole need to be drill/tapped near the airbox now?
- Best recommendation for plugging the now un-used drill/threaded fitting on the front pipe?
- Is the problem definitely solved, or would it be better to wait prior to making any changes?
- Is it hurting anything to drive the XSport currently, with the prior install?
TIA for a comprehensive reply.
