Post Fix For Oil in Throttle Body

I got one on the way and I can't wait to try it out. It is about time someone came out with something to fix this problem. I have purchased several items from this person and they are top quality. Check out his feedback, no negatives.

There is a web-site as well.

www.lightning-enterprise.com

Definitely worth checking into.

This may work, but doubtful. The oil is not getting sucked up from the drivers side. It get sucked up through the passenger side, making a path from the back of the blower, up through the front and into the boot. Using the Campell Hausfeld set-up that there are a million posts on, will catch 95% and get rid of the oil in the boot.

It's not as good as the person who developed the boost by-pass kit.

Some round plastic for $25.00

There's another PCV valve that is WAY CHEAPER (6 bucks from a Ford Dealership) that is supposed to work. It's from a Mustang though....

Keep us posted on that kit. All it looks like is a PCV valve that closes and an adapter kit.

No, just take a quick poll.

Those who launched plugs, did you have a Boost Bypass installed?

Go look in the other forums where they don't even have superchargers on the engines. Plug launching happens on N/A engines also.
