There's your problem right there. It needs to go between the MAF and the turbo intake. Right now you are boosting the crank case.
You didn't have a shop do this work, did you?

In case it wasn't obvious, do not get into boost until you get this fixed.

Or vent that hose to the atmosphere there and plug the hole in the cold side of the ic pipe for now. It's not correct but will allow you to drive the car without boosting your crankcase. I ran a turbo car for over 160k miles like that. I repeat it's not the right way but it's better then how you have it now.

Did you fix it? Are you talking about that blue hose? i have tht one disconnected for now on my ve, it runs just perfect it just reroutes the presure that is relised back into your intake. Just unhook it and cover up the hole by the intake. Ill try to post a pic later on when i get back home. But you might have a hose hooked up wrong.

No, that is not what they are talking about. You seem to be talking about the diverter/recirculation valve. That is bad advice as well. Unhooking that line from a metered system causes the car to run EXTREMELY rich between shifts. You can and will easily destroy your catalytic converter.

Yes, there is a hose hooked up wrong. He has the CCV hooked up to the intake after the turbo. It should be hooked up before the turbo or vented to atmosphere.

he got it fixed already, and my car has been running great and also my car has no catalytic converter.
