Crank case hose on turbo'd bike
I've been venting this hose out and down the side, then just a tad under the backside of the oil pan. That got the oil out onto the street/ground. Before this routing and removing the crank internal tube, I was getting a lot of oil all over the area the hose vented. There are blue oil fumes (smoke?) from this hose.
I was thinking making a hose port on the back side of the filter to the tubto inlet and routing this hose to that. Ala, no more blue fumes, but there would be a very small amount of oil heading into the inlet of the turbo.
Do you all think this would cause any problems?

I did that to my turbo zrx1200 and it worked great ... What i did was get a filter with two nipples ( one on each end ) Run the line from the crank case to the filter and then to the big filter on the turbo ... No more stinky fumes when i pulled up to a stop sign ..

Smokin...
Interesting.
What is the purpose of the in-between filter?

If it was a line right to the crank case to turbo filter the suction from the turbo would suck oil from the crank cases ...with a open filter in the line it would only suck the fumes mixed with a little fresh air ...
