Anything else i should know about the PCV valve or "black box"? It seems like whenever i get under the car to find the thing i can't see ----, i can feel it, but how does it come out. Also what's the difference between a regular PCV valve and a gutted one?

just gut your stock one, meanin you drill it out, and just buy a pcv valve from a turbo car, so it can with stand boost. and its easiest to get to the black box with the intake mani out for me. thats when i did my pcv setup.

the one that says pre-turbo intake, hook that up to a catch can, then a pre-turbo intake

then the other one to the check valve, then to the intake mani.

hope this helps

i wanted to do my pcv system this way. but no strauss or autozone carry saab parts. not even a pcv for saab. where can i get a check valve? the parts people didnt even know what that was.

you can buy the saab part here:

and as far as check valves, autozone has em. they are just called pcv valves. get one thats similar to the one in the pic, cuz the part of the saab T that connects to it is pretty tiny, so you have to get a check valve thats pretty tiny too.

remember to blow on or suck the air through the check valve to make sure you install it the right way. the air should be sucked OUT of you catch can INTO the intake mani.
