Default May not be serious, does this happen to you guys?

So I have noticed that I have had to push my dipstick back down after doing a couple pulls. For example, when I did the half mile shootout, after each run I would have to push my dipstick back down. It wouldn't come out all the way, It would just pop up. im running 14-16lbs of boost on a stock motor/stock compression. May be a noob question, I am just curious if it something serious I should worry about or is it a quick fix.

Breathers are blocked, or you've got a lot of ring blowby.

Quick fix is to turn the dipstick around. Long term fix? No clue

Wipe the O-rings off, wipe out the area where the dip stick goes and it should reduce it. As said above, reverse it. Everybody that is boosted may see this from time to time. I noticed mine the other day.

I suggest ditching the PCV and plugging the nipple on the intake manifold; replace the PCV with this and run some form of catch can.
