is it possable to have elevated crankcase pressures bad enough to blow the dipstick out of the tube, but yet not show evidence of burning oil on the exhaust side of things. I am contemplating using my money budgeted for other things to put together a new 6-bolt, but if I can nurse my old 7-bolt until later it would be optimal..... what can I look at to determine what is wrong and how to fix it.
also, I am putting a new turbo on the car and dont want to hurt it, will this situation possably hurt the new snail??? -------------------- You CAN sleep in your car, but your CAN NOT race your house!!!

after reading the thread from DSMtalk.com I now know what I did wrong. I disconnected the PCV valve conpletely, exposing the valve to the atmosphere, thus it no longer vents the crankcase pressure cause it has no vacume to open the PCV valve. that could also be why it would "pop" the dipstick out more often during high boost applications... thanks for your help guys.
