I recently took mine out because it was broke anyway. No issues yet. Never heard of the air theory. Now I'm tossing the idea around if I should replace it. I just think it looks pretty cool though. Being able to see somewhat inside the engine bay and all. Just my .02

taking a good dump right before driving will compensate for the weight of the vent

If Mitsu put it their, its their for good reason. I cant see Mitsu putting effort in r&d and money in each Evo if their was no need. I can definently see how it allows hot air to be pulled out of the engine bay, a venturi effect of some sort. Just my thoughts.

Mitsubishi USA and JDM also require conventional 5w30 oil on the 2009-2012 Ralliart but i dont hear ppl standing up for them and their efforts on that front...
(synthetic is only a recommendation)
