taken off your evo website that you linked above: " These devices are one-way valves that can stop 1000psi" http://evo.dejonpowerhouse.com/

taken from wikipedia: The Positive Crankcase Ventilation valve, or PCV valve, is a one-way valve that ensures continual evacuation of gases from inside a gasoline internal combustion engine's crankcase. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pcv_valve

So, again, the "Krank Vent" IS a PCV valve.

PCV valves do not create pressure or create vacuum.

in the picture taken from the website.

you can see clearly that one (1) of the "Krank Vent"s is inline with the stock PCV valve. (only makes a difference if your PCV valve is broken)
(This Krank vent is irrevalent and pointless, we are done talking about it.)

and the second(2nd) "Krank Vent" is to allow high pressure air to escape through the crank case into the atmosphere(high pressure to low pressure)

This second one will not allow unmetered air to be sucked into the valve cover and thereby getting sucked into the manifold.

SO the second krank vent will help with idle, and help keep the crank case maintain vacuum while at idle.

But here is the funny thing, this is not the problem, the car doesnt leak oil at idle, it leaks oil at WOT. The "Krank Vents" do NOT create VACUUM while UNDER BOOST.
