As stated, it can cause lean conditions at idle/part throttle.In most N/A applications; it's usually best to leave the PCV in place. In forced induction applications this is not always the best choice.An option could be 2 open breathers OR you could even go so far as to use an evac kit such as this: http://www.jegs.com/i/Moroso/710/25900/10002/-1# Emission compatibility becomes an issue at that point, however. I'm not sure I would run a pan-evac on a car with catalytic converters in place. That's a situation in which blow-by becomes a fire hazard.You can even use a smog pump or air pump in more radical setups. The trick is finding a good pump that will live at high RPM's or play with pulley sizes to keep it from spinning too fast.Here's an excellent write-up on the different types of systems:http://people.msoe.edu/~lannanm/TECH_pcvsystem.htmlAnd some more learning here as well: http://people.msoe.edu/~lannanm/techarticles.htmlAlso from SBFTech.comThanks for the good reading.

1988 Two Tone Cougar XR7 VORTECH V-1 NEW pics page 25 go look Reply #128 – October 08, 2008, 02:53:10 AM Its the 2 tone paint job that fits our cars maybe not the colors for that to each their own but with the side trim removed and the colors and wheels the XR7 looks better with its clean lines than i could of ever thought.Note: i know in my mind 90%+ how the car will look but in whatever part of the project there at when i go take pics it will at least give you some idea of how it will look in the end "since its still being wetsanded".pics tomorrow maybe middle of the day or soonerAlso swapping out the TC wheel out of the wrecked car on my T-bird and getting 2 Chrome Cobra Rs tomorrow for it so a few T-Bird pics tomorrow as well time to make both cars a little nicer on my day off.P.S. Birdman maybe so but this time its got a few Thousand dollars worth of extras and more power more boost more looks and should handle and shift better. Quote Selected
