Another downside to routing the PCV -> Exhaust is that it smells TERRIBLE.

Honestly I really have not found this or had my friends report it as being at all bad. Yes we checked and on the dyno it was also really easy to check. However my motor is freshly rebuilt, new seal all around. I was pushing up to 24 PSI though.

I would think on a higher milage engine it would be more pronounced but in my case it is hardly or not at all noticable.

Damn thats a clean motor.

And is there a way to confirm the exhaust way of workin well on a street car? I live i a place were emissions dont matter and i dont care if it stinks to bad and think that this route would be best for me. I have seen several great examples of it done

Mine is a street car, but I have to cauttion again, it is very difficult to get it working well. Most of my ealiest tests resulted in everything from extreme pressure to absolutely no vacuum of any kind at all. And everything in between.

Or you could just run it how it is from the factory... Nothing wrong with that.. Your doing more harm than good running a catch can like most people hook them up

Really nice hoses/routing/etc.....is that 6AN hose for the PCV you have setup?
