Not sure if the treadstone kit was suppose to come with one but I didn't get a replacement pcv. They actually didn't mail me the kit in full but instead mailed me pieces of the kit across 6 months and I ended up having to to still buy some fittings, buy my own fuel pump (cuz the one they sent me had no pigtail or strainer) ect ect. Not the best experience.
Car is finally cool and that was the first thing I checked (the 2 hoses under the manifold). They were still intact but I was able to slide the hose on and off with my finger tips at the nipple behind the throttle body. I'm not sure if that is enough to cause such a drastic spike in my stft but I guess it's possible. I'm going to find a creative way to put a zip tie on it later tonight. I would love to keep pointing the finger at the manifold hoses but I have been staying out of boost since I'm not tuned yet and I'm only experiencing a measurable vac leak at idle. Stft drops when to normal values when cruising.
