I've never known a vq to blow up from average boost levels (not many on here at extreme boost pressures) because or crankcase pressure. That valvecover gasket will go long before it affects the mechanics of the engine. At <20psi i wouldn't even worry about it. I just have breather filters on both of my valve covers.

Vent to atmosphere? just runs breathers on the valve covers? How would you go about doing it? I read so much about it and there are so many guys who run it all different ways it's like "ok what the hell do ya go with lol"
With my old motor I dealt w cc presure and I had a breather on the drivers side and it blew oil every where, all over the engin bay.

i run breathers on both of mine.

if you're worried about oil (which i've never had a problem with) then run a hose from the breather to a catch can then put the breather on the catch can.

500-1000. Think I put close to a 1000 on mine before a dyno tune.
