This question for Roland, but if anyone else knows just chime in.

The vent hose from the rocker cover to the intake pipe upstream from the throttle body is supposed to handle excess blowby under high rpm loaded conditions. Is this ever the case with the S?? I would expect that the pcv line would handle this volumn easily given that the high rpm full load condition is when the supercharger is putting out maximum boost (and sucking hardest at the throttle body.) Wouldn't the vacuum downstream of the throttle body where the pcv connects be high enough to handle any condition?? Has your testing indicated anything other than some kind of filtering needed for the breather hose?
