oil consumption at track
Hi,
Just finished a road race event and have concerns about oil consumption. Boost is ok, running 11-6-11, will be adjusting the transition shortly but that is another matter. My concern is that the car consumes a normal amount of oil during street driving however at the track, it is rediculous. I am going through 1 liter per every 10 laps. I opened the factory BOV to atmosphere and after 5 laps the whole area was soaked in oil. The car is still on the stock twins, are the turbos done?
these are my mods.
efini down pipe
high flow cat
greddy power extreme
pettit ecu
supra tt fuel pump
greddy profec B
pettit AST
256 RWHP @ 11 psi

There was thread about oil use at the track a little while ago. I think the general consensus was that during hard cornering, more oil gets pushed into the intake track somehow, and burned off. The solution seemed to be a catch can.
Lemme see if I can find that one...

thanks for the link,
does anyone have pics of a catchcan setup? and does anyone have a return from the catch can back to the pan? it is so frustrating to only be able to run 5 laps at a time knowing I have to add oil.
thanks again,
