pcv fixes

[asht42]

Right I'm gonna start by saying sorry for any arguements this causes 

I'll also apologise as this is my first turbo'd car and I'm not used to all these little valves lol

there seems to be 2 schools of thinking on this :

1 block it off and be done with it

2 add a catch can and drain regularly

which is the better option for say stage 2+?

Cheers

Best option is to get the last revision OEM PCV.

The TFSI was designed to run with a PCV system so it's not going to do it good having all that crankcase pressure in the head, so blocking it off isn't a great idea.

Catch can doesn't do much for the TFSI, the oil which gets on the inlet valves will still get through the turbo seals so the catch can is a bit of a waste of money IMHO. VRSAlex (admin) proved that after 8k miles that his valves were dirty again.

I looked into it, read everything on the forum and decided to stick with the OEM PCV
