The inlet line was switched and the outlet line was just replaced before the picture.

I noticed you have a breather installed on your catch can. From what I have read, that disrupts the function of the PCV valve because it is metered air. Supposedly, it makes your car run a little leaner than intended.

Good point, but I dont know if it really matters since I'm running an AEM EMS, converted to speed density... and besides I got tuned on the dyno... I dont think it really matters

If you guys notice, the ARC one is engineered correctly because you want the intake to still evacuate the crank case gases. Just putting an open filter on the crankcase or catch tank is not going to move the crankcase gases. Built up gases in the crankcase will cause sludge build up.

BTW for those that are running a can, how much oil do you actually catch? Say by every oil change ~3000 miles?

Yeah, good point, that is another reason that a breather or a open loop in the pcv line may not be a good idea.
