are you guys still running the PCV valve into the intake on these setups? the oil might be blowing back through the crankcase .

Not bad TRD is going to replace the supercharger. It is a blown seal in the supercharger and they are giving me a brand new one. That is why i drive a Toyota... well a Scion

I picked toyota so I don't every have to worry about this kind of stuff. I'm still holding off on SC, waiting for them to announce some kind of redesign.
