[200q20v] Re: Audi 20V Turbo Crankcase Breather System Tuning, - some hel p found

[Phil Rose]

Tommy,
Looks to me that the configuration in Martel Bros. STE 5110 (tank) plus STE
5127 (removable cap) would be about  right, but the lid to tank connection
is only "push-on", and I think it's not sealed (i.e., is vented.) On the
other hand STE 5122 (air/oil separator) is possibly just the kind of thing
what we're talking about--it certainly has the right name.

I'll call Martel to get more info.

Phil
