[s-cars] RE: [RS2list] RS2 on track (breather system tested)

[joeamund]

My car came from MTM with the separator, and  I tested it for oil-droplets in
the  intake tube from  separator to turbo intake. I was not  at all impressed
with lot of oil coming to the  turbo intake, and a small oilconsumption.

I am almost sertain they told it came from a 5cyl diesel engine and used it
due to emmisions. The recomendations were to make a collector tube approx 2"
OD by 3" length. Two intakes in the middle approx ½" OD, one  from cyl.head
and  one  from  crankcase. Bottom of the  collector drains back to the oilpan
with a special banjo bolt to the  oil drain plug. Top of the collector vents
into the engine bay thru a small 2" OD air filter. Nothing goes  to the intake
side of the turbo. the collector is supported on an extended EL-waterpump
bracket

I'm driving around 10000 miles on the Mobil-1 5-50W, changing both oil and
filter and drains the oil cooler at the 10K interval. So far the car has 50000
miles after the engine rebuild and zero oil consumption. That includes a lot
of autobahndriving with 2-3 hrs continuesly in 6.th gear at 5- 6000 rpms. You
can hardly see a thin-thin oilfilm on top of the collector by the outlet.
