Oil Dip Stick...
Hey guys, I recently finished installing a bigger turbo from the t25 I had. The issue now is the Oil Dip Stick pops out under hard boost. Other than adding something to hold the dip stick is there anything else that might be causing this??

I know it's the N/A edition, but the turbo edition isn't up yet.

Sounds like your boosting your crank case. You probably have a PCV hose plumbed into your IC pipe instead of the intake before the turbo. Read the above link, lots of good info.

For Sale > Forced Induction

Wrong section to ask my friend.


On second hand, I recommend you the following 2 things if all of your connections are correct:

Change your PCV for a new one (this does marvels)

Change your Oil Dip Stick for a new one (the seal through time shrinks and get hard)

I had the same problem and this solved it. If this does not, then I recommend you to lower your boost as you might be having a lot blow by on your rings area.

No. You will suck up oily blow-by into the intake since you're by-passing all oil separators that way.

Is that a picture of your engine bay?

If it is, can you tell us where you've connected the other end of the hose that connect to the top-right of the valve cover? I can't really tell by the picture.
