I already tried crimping the end of it too. and it will still shoot it out past the rubber part.

The other thing i forgot, and I dont know if this was caused by any crank case pressure or not, but the other day when i was giving a buddy a ride i got on it and last I seen was 17.2psi on the boost gauge. And than all of a sudden smoke started pouring out of the engine bay. Somehow the gasket between the oil filter and the filter housing blew out.

The car was fully warmed up I wasn't even full throttle yet. My buddy said it was loose, but I remember making sure it was tight when i installed my WBO2 sensor a couple days before. It hasn't done it since, but I have been alot nicer to the car since than.
