Too many of the top ballers and dropping out. Not you too...

Get them re-built, or buy some used ones off a pansy that dropped out.

Every time I think I have chased away all the demons something else pops up. I've devoted too much time and money to this. I can't afford to pay over $1000 for a track day and only have the car make it 1/4 way through it.

I need to solve the crankcase pressure issue and the turbo's won't leak anymore.

a hundred dollar chevy S10 vacuum pump, and a boost switch will solve your problems as well.

are sure your oil pressure to the turbos is not too hi?

That sucks bro..bummer..ironically enough my Z is setup very close to what you had suggested, the only difference being that the drivers side is not "drilled out". I still have the freaking coolant pressurization issue and just picked up a "combustion gas in the coolant tester". I think I will try another new greddy or toyo high pressure cap, buy a nismo low temp thermo and see what it does then. I can cruise around all day long not going into boost and have no issues, if I beat on it then the overflow fills up and the car will eventually overheat because of an "airlock" situation. I've been ready to pull my hair out with this crap..but take a deep breath and keep working the issue. Think how good its going to feel when you get the issue resolved and you can run the crap out of it at the track! You're on the leading edge of this with as much HP as you're making..so don't give up..stay after it!

The only reputable choice is Forced Performance. IMHO.

I have not checked the oil pressure to the turbo's. I am running the Forged Performance upgraded oil ines. How would I check the oil pressure at the turbo?

You can try:

http://www.blouchturbo.com/upgrades/

At least you can compare costs this way. BTW, the turn time on my upgrade was amazing. Good luck.

Run valve cover breather vents into your exhaust after the turbo. See it at the drag strip all the time with high compression v8s. The exhaust will keep it in someone what of a vacum. You need to take a small pipe and angle it into the exhaust pipe, facing the rear of the car, at an angle. This way the exhaust will draw pressure out of the crank case.
Link with pictures to give you an idea.

Jegs has the kit you need.
