BTW, DamonB, do you think it's worth replacing the oil metering nozzles (oil injectors), as a possible cause that could explain the oil filling the vacuum chamber?

Manny,
What kind of voltage do you see with the commander for the OMP? If its highlighted, then its on the fritz.
That would tell you if the signal is atleast correct, but not if they are leaking. Although if the OMP is going bad, and sending that much oil, wouldn't you need to be checking the oil level in the pan. Also if its pumping to much oil in, wouldn't the majority of it go out the exhaust or at least you'd notice the black smoke out the exhaust...so I don't think its the OMP.

BTW, the Crispy Cap and catch bottle are working as CrispyRx7 advertised. It's doing a great job venting the oil pan pressure, and not spewing oil all over the place, or filling the catch bottle. One little detail is is the swivel fitting does rub the hood slightly. You have to turn the fitting a certain direction to minimize the rubbing, but it's nothing a little touch up paint can't fix LOL

Manny,
The OMP voltage should be from 1 to 4.2 v according to page D-16 of the service manual. varies with load of course.

got the 99 spec rims from Jesse Lau last year so I'm set in that department. If I can swing the rears, I will, but I know I'm going to get the fronts. Are you still using the OEM 99 pads?
Sorry to change the thread on ya.

I thought I'd jump into this conversation...I am having primary turbo problems and thought it might be a similar problem. my boost pattern is
1st: 5-3-11
2nd: 6-4-11
3rd: 7-5-11
4th: 7-5-11
5th 9-7-11
It sounds similar to SleepR1's secondary turbo problem, and instead of starting an new thread, I thought Id ask your opinions in here.

SleepR1, what exactly where the boost issue you experienced with the vac leak? I only run 10inHG at idle. Primary boost strong, secondary boost strong at transition but as rpm climbs boost drops off rapidly to about 5 psi. I'm thinking my chamber may be full of oil as well and will check tomorrow when I get the tools. Did you have a similar boost problem on the secondary?
