But what's wrong with just letting it breathe like it is set up stock? I mean sure you don't get the vaccum, but it'd be letting out the pressure just the same correct?Someone eles said expained it as if you were to put a brick and a feather in a jar and suck all the air out of it. They would both fall at the same rate. Its all about resistance.As it is set up stock, it sucks and blows with every stroke get your mind out of the gutter, that is the best way to describe it.

ColoradoHave you tried yours yet?I gave mine to my buddy with a Z400 to try & he hasn't yet installed
dude it's a pcv valve.... <---ase cert master auto tech
I have both types of valves and love them both.They definitely have a great product at a great price.
word for word in what it does it's just not routed back into the air intake for emission reasons....

It does perform the same function, but the internal design is far superior. The guy that builds these for me has a patent on the design. They are far more sensitive and durable. They also withstand nitromethane and methanol. A PCV valve off the shelf doesn't seal like these do, and they fail every time. So in the strict sense of the term it is, but the performance is nowhere close. I've already had guys trying to save a few bucks, and getting covered with oil when a PCV valve fails
So, is anyone installing a filter on this thing to keep dirt from settling in there? I have to install mine and I bought a stainless mees brether to put on the end of it.Any Thoughts?Jay
