Mine did pop out all the time.....on the dyno. believe this is because I check my oil so much that I have worn out the o-rings on the dipstick.

Since venting the front ( no check valve) and using a vibrant port on the oil fill ( no check valve) I have yet to see it pop back out again. both vented to atm through there own filter.

Normal PVC valve is drilled out and am using a krank vent ( even though it is not really necessary) plumbed to the intake side of the supercharger. ( vacuum portion between the TB and the rotors.)
got pics of this set up?

No problem with my setup, in fact the dipstick has never popped out once, never on the dyno nor on the road. Though I'm only running 370BHP @the crank.

I have a catchcan that has...

a) 2 inflows ports on the top of catchcan, from the front and back breather ports on the cam case.
b) both the inflows port have pipes that run half down into the catchcan
c) halfway down on the outside i have a mini k&n breather.
d) stainless steel brillo pads inside

Why is it setup like this?

The brillopads act as oil/air separators thus oil clings to the brillopads making catch the oil more effective. The inflow ports pipes inside go halfway down the CC so the oil mist doesnt take the easier route back up through the ports/filter and forces it to flow through the brillopads.

I noticed that the mini filter when orginally placed ontop, and adding brillopads its now much more effective, plus the mini filter doesnt get caked up as much as it used to.

Both the intake manifold port and return to the air intake pipe are capped off.
got pics of how you have it plumbed?
