lol. Well, I'd be down for a GP on some cheap industrial check valves that we can rig up ourselves. Does anyone know of a website for something like that?

I still have 4 left from my mod!!!

It was cheaper to buy a pack of 6 then it was to buy 2.

I will find the website later and post it in a different forum and show the proper way of hooking it up (with catch cans!)

One key thing is that you still need a proper working PVC valve with this setup i believe.

Re: Venturi vacuum pump

Is there a 1 way valve on the line from A1 to your "venture" (brass T) devise? If there is this setup would not work any better under boost then stock. I do not see it working better then stock at all, you said your self the intake pipe does not make any vacuum. Also if you want to hawk your crap to the masses here contact scheides and set up a vendor account, then you will not be banned at least. If you really want a vacuum on the crank case then a mechanical pump will work better then any setup you buy from Ace Hardware.

Re: Venturi vacuum pump

Wouldn't those check valves at least be better than OEM?

Yes. Most factory PCV valves leak boost into the crankcase. I actually now have my own brand of these Krank Vents that I am testing out on my car and Scheides' car.

I've been a fan of Krank Vents for quite some time and I used them on my S2k with great results, but I did realize they are really expensive for what you're getting.

Have been tested at 80psi, no leaks. I think with my car at 15 psi, it will do just fine.

Catch can should take care of oil sludge build up. It also states that it is a gas/liquid check valve.

For the price, if it does fill up with crud, I will put another in, I have a couple of these when I ordered them. They are that cheap!

aren't you worried what will happen if yours fill up with crud?

What is in your metal check valve that makes it seal? It is a metal seal? Plastic? rubber? you should cut one in half to show how it works

Re: Venturi vacuum pump

i have mine setup the same way yinyang does, and get the same results i was gonna weld a tube into my exhaust to create suction at all levels.
I was reading a post on some other site about doing it, apparantly a lot of people have been doing that for a long time.
