Godfuckingdamnit.

Evo pops the dipstick :( despite brand new OEM dipstick and PCV metering/check valve. So either pistons/rings/bores/stem seals are bad, or the brand new PCV valve isn't closing completely.
Compression test is in:

CYL 1: 12,4bar
CYL 2: 12,5bar
CYL 3: 12,9bar
CYL 4: 12,9bar

Seems reasonable?

Installed a definitely fully working Saab check valve inline with the Mitsu metering/check valve. Still pops the dipstick but not as "violent"/far. Will now try venting the other pcv hose to atmosphere instead of to the turbo intake.
Ok, with the valve cover breather disconnected from the air intake, it only pops the dipstick a little bit. Might need to re-do some piping.. hmm

Ok, still pops a little bit even with bone stock PCV system. Will lower boost down to baseboost and get a dipstick helper spring until I can afford an engine rebuild 🙂
