I have raised this on another section of this forum. But I am experiencing a little blow by out of the rear of my supercharger unit, where the air filter meets the back of the unit. I guess this is a result of my PCV set up. How are the supercharged guys dealing with their PCV, I have been told to use breathers and disconnect the PCV alltogether and have also been told to use a catch can in the pcv line. How are you guys doing it, photos would be real good.

What kind of HP are you guys getting from your setup ?
Had mine dyno tested yesterday to tune the engine.
Started with 283 at the rear wheels and ended today with 365HP at the rear wheels. A sparkplug blew and the mixture was stil way to rich so we are going for another run in about 2 weeks. 400+ HP should be possible at the moment.
Just curious if this is a good figure or that we need more fine tuning ?

My motor is only getting 310 at the rear wheels at 5500RPM but still fixing a few small things on it. It is from a mild 302W and I think with a little more tuning I would get another 10-20hp. I am only running 7.5p of boost as well. Replied to your pm I think I will go with the catch can, be good to look at your set up

Not for sure how accurate they are but my buds gtec showed 560
was in a open parking lot by the shop no windows in not ready for the street yet idk if ill ever spend the cash on a dyno but it is very quick.
it seems faster than his 07 z06 does but we havent had it out of 3rd gear either.
