is to keep oil & fumes from getting reburned, oddly enough that is its verry purpose :-)
anyway.... oil & oil fumes lower octane & can lead to pre ignition that is why my car & carls viggen vent to atmosphere this is probably no biggie on a stock car or mildly tuned car but I think if you are realy pushing it its best not to have the fumes or oil in there at all
before I had my car apart this time I had a bad seal between the turbo inlet pipe & the turbo so that area was allways oily :-(
ofcourse I have it sealed up tight now but its nice not to have oil allover the turbo :-)
take care
JAK
