we tried all kind of ways to make the turbo build boost to the maximum by making a direct hose from wastegate to the turbo , this way should give us the maximum psi possiable of the turbo , but it also didnt , we closed the exhaust side of the wastegate to see if vents air we said it might be a bad wastegate spring but its closed and no air , the solenoid am talking about is the pcv swith
we applied 12v to the post on the PCV switch and listened for a click , their was nothing , the hose that was in the intake we pulled out and everytime we go on boost it spills alot of air/oil out side like crazy which means the crank case is getting filled with boost insted of the turbo ,

The PCV switch is grounded when the body is bolted down (Normally open)and then a 12v signal is applied when 1psi of boost is applied (switch closes) then it vents to the atmoshere through some small filter on top of the switch

i guess this is our problem , if its not then i dont know wht is the problem other than the turbo it self . i am waiting on STS BECAUSE we changed both pcv but didnt change the switch , and hoping they can send us the switch , it looks like it has 3 ports or something similar

we are not in california and i am really intersted in deleting this pcv switch thingy once and for all , i know its against some states in usa such as california , all info is appreciated in getting this switch or deleting it completely .

thanks
