    Dear Audizine,

    What is this broken piece in the pic? It's right off the turbo inlet pipe.

    (and yes, for those of you wondering, those are pink and yellow zipties holding my heatshield in place )

    That's the Pancake valve/PCV elbow.

    ... it shouldn't be a boost leak, the PCV valve should prevent boost from going through there. Other wise I'd have a big ass boost leak, and I do not.

    lol, that's an upgrade as far as I'm concerned. Make sure none of that oil vapor gets back into the intake.

    Plug up the tip, put a filter on the hard line and call it a day IMO.
