Hold on a minute there man!

You can't just post pics like that without some kind of explaination!  :cool:

What's the AN fitting let into the exhaust at an angle?

it looks almost as if it's plumbed into the breather system? some kind of gas evacuation setup?

More info required!

Yes it's an exhaust evac for the Pcv system, it works fine and produces vacuum throughout most of the rev range but there is a point at the very top end of my rev when I produce quite a bit of back pressure in the exhaust making the check valve close and the dipstick pop out so I've disconnected it at the moment.

Ah that's a shame, I quite like the idea, but mine lives at 5-7k so it'd probably not be too suitable.

Very cool idea though, where did you find a check valve capable of withstanding those sort of temepratures?

Yea, I might still use it only without the check valve, I just need to stick a gauge on it and make sure it produces vacuum and never any measurable pressure. The check vale is just a high flow billet check valve from torques.

Thanks buddy! it's so useable mapped as it is and I have to admit I am surprised the power held on so deep into the rev range. I am a difficult one to please but I am very content with the map.
