Sweet supra.
I still want to know why the VVT breather vents better than the stock crank case vent. Especially when the air intake is SUCKING air out of your crank case. So it might be a smaller hose, but theoretically there is vacuum created by connecting it to the intake. |

see if you can get -6 or -8 braided lines. I did that to my HPFP and seen a great increase in volume.

Taking back my comment on gas fumes from the breather. I was dumping fuel out of my low pressure sensor. Apparently I did not tighten it enough and it was literally streaming gas down my engine!
Fixed and VTT back on the car. I was not smoking weed when I put it back together.

I bought a $25 oil catch can from Amazon (per the install review of another member on here) and will be trying that and was curious about doing this mod too, after seeing your initial post. I'm shell-shocked from having to replace my PCV valve (tried just replacing the cap, but ended up having to replace the whole valve cover).

In regards to the just replacing the cap. I also learned from BPM to replace the whole valve cover if your replacing the valve cover seal or the PCV diaphragm. They mentioned that they've seen the VC seal in need of replacement in under a year of repairing it. This happened to me and they mention the plastic cover warps anywhere from 1-2mm enough to never seat correctly again. So I'll be doing my OFHG and VC seals once more this year.

Also, I don't know about changing valve cover... I am at 112k and this is the first time I had to replace the gasket. Mechanic said the cover looks in great condition.

The guys at BPM are high caliber mechanics. It could be that it's not the case for everyone but 100k+ miles i think its worth the 500. I changed my seal 1.5 years ago and it's leaking again. Not massively but enough to annoy.

The guy is BMW certified master mechanic. He done these jobs left and right changed my valve cover gasket in 1 hour. Installed my turbo in 4 hours. He knows his shit is all I am saying lol. Done over 1200 valve cover jobs himself. He even told me this scary thing about n55s where engine oil change caused engine seize due to oil pump having air bubbles. He Hass seen it all.

@Bmw doubles, so overall experience of the breather is still good? Fits well under the hood, correct?
Wanting to purchase the breather as well as I am now approaching 26 - 27 psi of boost with my custom tune and do not really feel like blowing out seals. TIA |

According to BPM it's not needed but so far all good. No smells, no errors, no problems.
