Re: think ive discovered what my "secondary" catchcan is for!

i w ould say its just hooked in to the sump and doing exactly what the OEM catch can is doing but a more direct approach.

If thats the case the OEM one is sufficient for the whole job.

something mentioned above, were you having the dip stick push out???

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Turbo or bottom end gone

if there is oil in the IC pipes it is not likley to be the turbo it could also be to much crankcase pressure, i.e rings/ringlands if the turbo seals have gone on the EX side it will be leaking oil straight in to the exhaust and not quite burning it more just turning it to smoke if you know what i me...
