Default Crank case went to air

Hey,

Anyone vented their crankcase straight to air with two filters? (both sides) If so any pics, thoughts, sizes etc?

My tune isnt reading off the MAF so not to bothered about that.

Goal is to lower crank pressure.

Lol so true.


If you use a check valve for catalytic converters (not sure where we found them) but you can use the vacuum of the ehxaust to suck out crank case evap. Definitely the cool way to do it. But with a vq you're gonna have to put it pretty far back to not foul up o2 sensors (vs a 2jz where every turbo aspect is better lmao)
