If you think that works, then that would be your choice. To much plumbing for me and doesn't give it that "belongs in the car" feeling.

Guys!!!

I want to make a safety not to all because if you remove the PVC valve, "DON'T GET IT PUT BACK ON BACKWARDS" like I did a year ago!!! I noticed a terrible horse power loss.

I am glad you guys are as impressed as I have been with mine. This was todd's idea and he only wanted to get out a good product to all of us. As some have stated, this "can" can hold a lot of pressure. Todd himself drives one of those dreaded "Grand Nationals" with a lot of boost. Your intake or a seal would blow before one of these cans would.

Perfect example. You learned about it on this site and bought one. Now, how many others have done the same thing? Advertising, even if indirectly doing so.

If you are looking for a catch can that is designed for the pcv issues, shoot me an eamil and I'll get you hooked up. The AMW kits have gone through about two years worth of r and d, definatly benificial in removing oil and contaminates coming from the crankcase through the pcv.
