why do some catch cans have a breather

Re: why do some catch cans have a breather
Exactly, thats the setup I have with 2 pcv valves. I just gutted the stock pcv and bored it running to the lines for the system. Works with both vaccum as would a stock system and vents when under boost.
I have two catch cans (one going to each locaton) just to be safe so oil problems dont happen.

Re: why do some catch cans have a breather
so you have 2 pcv's and your stock one is drilled out? right now i have my stock one drilled out but just a catchcan going to my pre turbo intake, which makes some suction not alot, almost none at idle, and i figure the stock system is pulling on the pcv at like 20+ psi at idle thats why i thought of this

Seriously, there's no vacuum left when the throttle plate is wide open in a N/A honda. I can post a video if you guys need it. Long story short, I installed the boost/vacuum gauge before the turbo setup, and now I'm broke, so the setup is very slowly coming together, lol.
Further proof of vacuum @ wot is in CROME. Look at the headings of the columns, and you'll see where WOT is.

Re: why do some catch cans have a breather
so the pcv doesnt have suction except at idle? i thought wot is when your engine makes the most pressure in the crank case, i guess its just not a big deal or they would have a better way to suck it out or have some pump that would suc it out
pretty much i dont like the smell that comes out of my valve cover filter it comes in through the vents if there on fresh air so i think a one way valve to the manifold on the catchcan would keep it flowing the right way, at least at stops, anyone tried this? what does a stock turbo car use for the pcv system anyways?
