Hey guys new here hate using forums but im lost here. Ive had my crx for a while turbod it a few months back. ever since i have had nothing but leaky oil pan issues. Ive bought multipul aftermarket oil pan gaskets. ive bought new ones right from honda. Ive honda bonded the gaskets. I torque them in the proper sequence and only to 108 in/lbs. and i do it in multipul steps not tightening one side more then the other. Any one have any ideas. Ive even tried using right stuff. After a little spirited driving it leaks again!! HELP

crank case pressure could be getting too high. Its possible that venting your valve cover will fix the problem.

I had this issue with my turbo integra as well. Blew out 3 or 4 gaskets before I put a catch can setup on it and it fixed the issue. However my setup was most likely different than yours. Mine was

10:1 CR 81.5mm GSR
Mini ram
35s turbo
3 inch exhaust
built head yadda yadda yadda

No issues after the catch can setup was put on. 2 -10an fittings to a catch can and I was set. Here is a picture for reference

I was going to mention that as well, but I figured it was just because I didn't know what I was doing, lol. My valve cover is open to the atmosphere. A little filter on it where there was the hose that used to go to the stock intake. But I also had a leaky gasket on the turbo when I was leaking there..
