    That pcv setup may cause your dipstick to hit the hood, especially if your running higher boost. Or at least mine did.

    And nice shadow. I like the color choice

    drilling a small hole into the plastic part of the dipstick and using a spring should hold it down ( as seen in the picture ). as for the pcv mod yes that filter will quickly get wet with oil and make everything a mess gets some rad hose long enough to get down the side of the engine and put some steel wool in lightly, so that you can still breath through it.

    You can also do what I did and take the valve cover off remove the baffle plate tap another pcv opening and have two pcv outlets this should eliminate the back press substantially here is a picture.
