Closed system done with -10an hose on pcv side and -12an hose on breather side. Because the M/E Wagner pcv valve is adjustable, I ll be able to compensate the small amount of pressure generated by the turbo on a closed system and if it's not enought I ll change the hose diameter, bigger on breather side to avoid pressure inside the crankcase and smaller on pcv side to pull more air inside the intake. I don't want oil smell inside the car and want a clean valve cover all the time.

started engine yesterday to see if something changed with the closed system, yes I needed to tune the pcv valve again a bit. No need to change hose diameter and the throttle response is incredible ! Way better than without the pcv valve. And finally I don't need a one way check valve, the M/E Wagner pcv valve can handle up to 30psi of boost.
the VE table has changed too, I had to add fuel everywhere because of the new small amount of air added by the pcv valve.
I'm installing the nose, aligment are good.
Later maybe in winter when I'll change the rear main seal I will cut the front subframe where the engine is sitting to replace it by a chromoly tubing welded on plates and bolted below the oil pan. The goal is to be able to remove the oil pan without moving the engine, everything has to stay in place.

original power window wiring boots not avaible anywhere so I've replaced it by a rack and pinion boot, it works.
I love the anvil auto front RS bumperettes so I'm trying to modify the front bumper to look more agressive and cool ! it's a try for the moment, if I don't like it after painting it black maybe I'll modify it again later
