Default Replacing PCV - what else to replace CTWA 3.0T

Hello!

When doing my PCV, I read a post somewhere explaining what all to replace while in there as well.

Is there anything I can replace while in there that keeps oil tension on the chain tensioner? I believe I saw this somewhere possibly, but cannot find that.

I found this, don't know if it applies to the CTWA-

If you decide to replace PCV, I would suggest the following:

1) Replace upper intake manifold gaskets x6
2) PCV hose (PCV to supercharger) (you can use the RKXTech diaphragm, considerably thicker)
3) PCV
4) PCV breather hose (this is a solenoid, and will give out a ticking noise and is prone to go bad when stuck open / closed
5) PCV to valve cover hose
6) waterpump
7) thermostat
8) supercharger oil (check my post on the gaskets needed)
9) N489 solenoid (at the minimum)
10) SC oil

Optional:
1) SC clutch
2) N492 solenoid




Thank you.
