Try to do a vacuum test (using a smoke/fog machine). When going boosted, you want to replace that PCV valve with an STI one since stock can't handle it. Mine wasn't seated correctly (by me) because it's a tight area and I couldn't get to it. Took it to a shop and they smoke test it to find it, they had a hard time tightening it as well but got it done.
thx for the reply

PCV valve is getting replaced but just oem. the jackson racing kit has an in-line check valve to handle the extra pressures included. so the plan is to just install as they intended. at tuners recommendation
