Probably. Vent the vc good. Also, I've had similar problems before when I just put the gasket on with no sealant. Now I glue the bitch to the head. Now it doesn't leak at all.

So how exactly is your vc vented now? On my miata I have a hose hooked to the PCV and it goes straight to atmosphere, no catchan or nothing. Breather has a filter on it, nothing else. I used to run both of these to a catchan and it would fill the can with 6oz of oil in a month. Must have been too restrictive. Now I run them both open as described and no oil leaks or blow by. Haven't put oil in it in a month, and I check today and it's right on full.

right now its hella rigged got a hose off the breather dumped into a coke bottle before it just had a filter on it and that shot would just shoot it off under boost

Leakdown test. If it's the rings, all that oil on them seals them up good so it will show good compression. :)

Dude, take the black box on the back of your block off, cut a hole in it, jb weld a 5/8" barb in it and run that and the 3/8 line you would be running for your pcv, and the line off the vc all to a snach can and dont even have to fuck aroud with all that shit. It will only be a temp fix but it will work until you get your shit straightened out.
