hey guys,

was hoping for some info on the pressure release pipe that runs from the rocker cover to the intake manifold.
is there much performance loss from the hot air&oil that runs through the rocker cover pipe and back into the air intake??

is performance gained from connecting a small air filter to the rocker cover pipe?

thanks guys

You will need that pipe wich is connected to your PCV valve. It sucks the gas out of your engine and burns it when it goes in your intake to your combustion chamber. Some people run the pipe toa Oil catch can and back to the intake to catch the oil and keep the intake clean.You will lose performance if you put a filter there.

PS I am assuming you are refering to the pipe to the intake manifold not the pipe to the intake pipe before the throttle body.
