which massive piping hose? the one that goes back intot he intake before the turbo but after the afm? If it is, thats your stock bov return line. You need to plug this one up, a lot of people hose clamp a bottle cap in htere and works a treat.

The oil problem is from your pcv (blowby) Its normal to have a bit, but if it is overly excessive then you may have a problem. Install a catch can and you shouldn't have any more oil in your intercooler and piping.

Which line are you taking off for it to stall? the vacuum line on the end of the bov or the return pipe from the stock plumb back bov?

if you're fluttering, your bov would be blocked. unscrew the bov flange and check for a blocking plate.

by disconnecting the bov return hose, your bov remains atmospheric. this will cause the car to stall.

get a catch can or even a coke bottle and connect it to your blowby lines.

vta,ing the stock bov will stall. but not because of the common misconception out there.

the stock bov is over 10+yrs old on most of our cars. as such springs wear out etc. i tried vta'ing my stock one..... didnt make it out of the street. BUY a aem bov. u will therefore have an item in perfect working order. dont go gtr bov's as they have the same age related problems

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
