Ive searched, read, read the turbo guide, read the BIG thread on Honda-Tech http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=697498&page=1 about it… And like everyone else, STILL confused!
I have ONE simple question. Is the point of having vacuum at the “breather box” to SUCK (vacuum) the gases out?
In the honda-tech thread, the guy did all the tests on a NA car which doesnt apply to the FI guys. If more gases are being created and need to excape faster, then why not just let the gases exscape into the atmosphere? (unless vacuum gets the gas’s out faster)
The main reason I ask all this is because I have a RevHard manifold for one. For two I dont have a pcv spot for this “check valve” so it sounds like its not a big deal. The turbo guide shows xenocron idea of doing a setup but I dont see the point in it. (again unless SUCKING the air out of the crank case is the point of a PCV system)
HaberDasher- What do you mean closed circuit (your setup) vs xenocron open circuit.
Im just making this harder then what it really should be?
BTW: There are two hoses that are in the “breather tank” on the back of the block. One is the line that goes to the PCV “check valve” and the other looks like it goes to…? I cant tell from my own picture and my motor/car is at the parents. it looks like maybe the head or even the TOP of the block, my guess is the head since air is coming into the head from the valve cover and thats how it leaves due to the vacuum?
Im just going to shut up and get owned very quickly hopefully by xenocron or haberdasher or one of you PCV gurus!
As of right now it appears that you just cant LEAVE the “breather box” open. Im thinking xenocron has the right idea, but I dont uderstand haberdashers idea in the first place.
