They're useful to keep excess oil out of your intake. Some people have more success with them than others, but they're generally a good addition.

I liked my AMW but it still was not enough to stop oil from coming in through the intake.The catchcan would stop the oil but not the oil mist that would totaly coat the inside of my intake. I even mounted the catch can in the front of my car to try and cool the oil mist charge.I tried aluminum line PCV line's and all,..Still did not work. I finally ditched the whole PCV system all together and use breathers and now my intake is finally clean.

Same here, I got rid of that junk pcv system and threw a breather on there. No problem thus far.

K, maybe a noob question...but how can I can tell if my intake is taking in oil??

you can take off your lid and open up your Throttle Body up a bit- not have to take off- and take a long cotton swab and see if you can get any oil- black residue.

With oil in the intake it will mess with your tune a bit lower your power a bit.

Thunder racing has the metco breathers. I got mine from a user for a good price.

if i go to the Metco breather do i have to take off the pvc system???

Yes, and just cap all the places where the pcv system was leading to. One breather should be fine as long as there is not excessive hp being made. If so then run a breather on the driver side also.

What does the Metco breather do over the catchcan?

The problem with the Metco breather that replaces the oil cap is , the rocker arm you see when you remove the oil cap will throw oil up and out of the breather at high rpms .

I have heard of ppl welding a plate on the under side of the valve cover to stop the splash effect caused by the rocker arm .
Then the oil cap breather would work just fine .

A breather can works better only because it will capture most of the oil carried in the vapor , allowing you to drain it later.

Did you modify that catch can to fit the K&N filter?? and if so why did you do it and what are the parts used (part #'s) please, i am very interested in that set up
thanks.

Its a new top with a breather and insert that locks it in place .
