I've done lots of reading and have not come up with a solid solution. Without ordering anything online or having to wait for ordered parts, how can I stop boost pressure from entering the crank case? My driver side header is tired of getting bathed in oil! And I'm tired of cleaning off my nice yellow plug wires everytime this happens!

What can I get from the hardware/auto parts store to fix this. I don't wanna have to pull the driver side valve cover because I have an eddy performer, and for those who own them you know it's a PITA to pull the upper!

I have a breather on the passenger side valve cover, but it's one of the "chrome closed element" types. Should I go ahead and run a hose to the inlet of the supercharger? Can I eliminate the PCV all together? If I do that, how do I stop oil from coming out of the lower intake where the PCV valve goes? I really wanna enjoy my car without all this drama. Thanks for the help!
 
The oil in the intake wasn't really a big concern for me, it was the fact that pressure was getting into the crank case and blowing oil out of my dipstick tube. I eliminated the PCV system completely and so far so good!
 
I was thiking of eliminating the PCV system but i just added a breather(just 1) and all the oil out the dipstick problem solved it for me. But then im not blown lol!
 
insert some line fittings into your valve covers, run the lines to a catch can (t-in the pcv tube) and then run the return line back to the intake. If you have an aftermarket intake there should be a plug in the side for a threaded pipe fititng. Problem solved.

Do you have any pics of this, just curious as to how this could be done... Do you have the same thing on your car? I have the issues with the oil misting from my dip-stick as well... Thanks

How did you go about eliminating your PCV system? I take it you no longer have cats and all the emissions garbage as well?!?!
 
I just capped off the intake where the PCV hose would go and installed a breather filter where the PCV valve was. I do get the oil odor so I'm probably gonna run a long hose back to where the transmission is and mount the breather filter down there. I don't want oil all over my new paint job in the rear so I'm not gonna just let it drip out.
