Air Intake/ Breather Installtion
hey, i just installed a short ram air intake to a 97 RS. there's louder noise from the intake under the hood. - that's fine.
i want to add a breather or two... is this beneficial in any way? the intake tube only has one attachment opening... so i connected the hose back to the motor. can you insert a breather in between the air intake and the motor? why? / why not? |
Well you can, but if a cop want you to pop your hood, and if he want to be a dick, he can give you a $110 ticket for each one, as it makes you engine a open system. No it is not bebeficial to add them, it will not change a thing.

Police cannot look under your hood unless they are a licened mechanic. So if one asks you to pop the hood ask for the lincence, get them to physically show you it.

that is a very nice thing to say but it could go both ways. i live in york region and there is just so many cops that are middle 20s and the a just the bigges dicks . when i just got my car my with Temp licence were expired for 12 hours so the duffus pulls me over and said that when i got my Temp stiker expired i didnt register it with a safety so he was gonna call some inspector to chek if my car fit to drive on the road and he started to walk around the car and ---- cheeking my tires but no inspector came :D and i had insurance policy # but no slip. so total of 5 tickets !!

Back on topic now. |
thanks a lot, gents!
i just checked this post... after posting another with same thing. except, now i have the breather installed. i didn't know breathers were illegal. so, how does it make my motor an open system, Spike? how do they work and how do they work incombination with the intakes? |
It's because it makes you crankcase open to the air, and you can not have it like that. I had my car taken off the road because of a ------- cop, all because my BOV did not Best recirculate back into the intake, it went just to air.
|
any links on how this thing works?
