    I had the same problem ya need more CrankCase Ventilation. I too run a open breather on my oil fill, with a turbo coupe PCV and a oneway checkvalve and my dipstick still popped out and sprayed oil everywhere. It works fine on the street this way. When i go to the track i remove my PCV and use a K&N filter where the PCV goes and i get no oil spitting and the dipstick stays where it should. You can do a search and you'll find some good info on this very subject HAWK05 has a killer setup.
