Great video, I had those open pcv valves from them when I was Supercharged. Nearly impossible to find that size and thread pitch fitting anywhere else than through them
Good video, but on an oem intake this is not a 10-15min job. In a well lit heated garage you are looking at an hour minimum if it's your first time reading the instructions and going through the process. Also you didn't show the removal of the passenger side pcv hose that goes from the PCV valve to the connector at the back of the intake which you capped off. That is probably the most time consuming part of the entire install. HRs are all 12-13 yrs old now and those hoses are not easy to remove, I ended up having to cut mine in a few spots to detach and remove it.
I capped off the back of the intake manifold and ran two lines into 1 oil catch can from both valve covers and now I’m throwing a misfire code. Not sure how this guy car is not throwing that code. I know it’s not my ignition coil or the spark plugs because I just did them and I did the re-learn Procedure(S) as there are 3 of them and drove the car and got the P0301
I don’t have a strut tower. But if you have a vibration most likely it’s rubbing against your AC line. Stillen provides a piece of rubber to cover the line and prevent this.
I don’t see how the breather does anything beneficial. It’s supposed to take filtered air into the motor to help circulate pcv gases, and allow said pcv to evacuate the engine under heavy load. Could just let it go through the air intakes per factory design and not have oil/fuel/misc smells and residue on the motor
The PCV system is a crappy federally mandated emissions system designed to reduce vehicle pollution. If your state does strict testing, this is actually an illegal mod. If your state doesn't do emissions testing this is a beneficial mod, especially for GDI engines. The PCV system recirculates engine blowby back into your intake to burn residual gases and to release excess crankcase pressure from this piston blowby. Unfortunately, along with the residual gases is oil vapor, as well as, moisture from heat/cold cycles. It's the oil vapor that's the problem. On GDI engines, this oil vapor collects on the backs of the valves and since there is no gas hitting the valves like on port injection engines, the oil builds up and creates carbon build up. Overtime, if left unchecked, this carbon build up can eventually destroy an engine. Fortunately, our little VQs are not Direct Injection, but Port Injection. However, oil vapor still makes its way into our intakes and mixes with the gas which reduces the octane rating of the gas. This affects performance as well as leaves varnish within the intake manifold. The are reports of better performance after doing a system like this due to a higher octane rating making it into your engine now. There's nothing but benefits to installing a system like this. However, to fully utilize a breather system like this, it should really be combined with an oil catch can. Otherwise, the excess oil vapor still collects on the breather filters and eventually deposits an oily residue on and around the breathers. With that said, if you maintenance the breathers every month or two, there may not be an issue with the oily residue.
@@spideym35i you can and it will mostly mitigate the oil vapor making it to the intake, however, it's not 100%. Unfortunately, some still gets by the catch can. The only way to keep the blow-by from getting into the intake is by separating the PCV system from the intake like in this mod. However, as I've already mentioned, this breather mod is best used with a catch can and vice versa. Basically, a PCV delete is the best route for GDI engines.
And I don't care what anyone says, the VQ35HR is one sexy-ass motor. It has to be one if the best built engines...has to.
Yes sir ! Best n/a V6! Reliable, power, sound, and so much potential ! VQBoyz

Always appreciate the detail in your videos 💯
Gracias bro
Get out the UA-cam comment section and hurry up and finish your Z so I can gap you in my Q60 😂
Damn those are fighting words
John Stephens - Make sure to leave the anchor out of your boat for that day 🙂🖤
Just Subbed My G
VQGANG! 🏎🔥Clean install bro ! What was your opinion on the ADD W1 dual oil catch cans?
Why not keep the add w1 catch can set up you had prior?
Will this also work for Q3.7? what benefits will you get from installing those? Looking forward to install these. Thanks! 🙏🏽
Question, I’m doing this on my 2013 Z but I have two spacers? One is bigger than the other lol
What do you do about the oil that comes out from the tiny filters
Can I do just the driver side delete. I have a catch can on the passenger side
This kit over the catch can kit?
where did you get that stuff bro .. i need that one
Is the fitting hallow
I after making this like you, I feel the smell of oil is it normal?
Can I delete just the front side
First!

did this make your car better or worse
How is that Stillen CAI? I have the Injen, but still in box. Lol.
Wasn’t too bad they actually flow well
@@EnthusiastPOV 🤙🙂👍
How did you do this? My car won't run correctly with those breathers
I just installed this kit. Engine seems a bit louder, but car runs fine. You might have a vacuum leak.

@@ahmadyoussef6117 Did you ever figure out the issue? I’m sort of experiencing the same thing as well
does this cause a check engine light?
Do you get any vibration on the driver side stillen intakes against the strut tower?

Enthusiast POV I meant by the metal area where your front suspension mounts
Nah not at all zero
Where you buy them at can I find them at any store like auto parts
Link is in the description to their website. Check the menu for your model.
I have a 07 g35s
The link has that.
Holy hell I would not be able to stand all that noise
Sup bruh?
My rear elbow on driver side broke 😡
Are you getting fumes smell in the cabin. I am currently having that issue even after installing a new cabin filter
I replaced mine a while back but I’m sure I will once I delete the cats which I suspect that are clogged.
@@EnthusiastPOV they do leak a little oil on you plugs from time to time on the drivers side. you can smell them at a stop but it's not bad.
Ah okay not bad
Yes you will notice that smell since you are venting to atmosphere now. Probably why this kit is for off road use only.
@@nighthawk0077 ok, I relocated the filter closer to front grill and notice the smell is not as strong.
This shit leaked oil all over my coils
Dam bro....I hope you got a good deal on your lease with all that barking.
lmfao!! bruh I did but I see why hahaha
🤣
Hey bro , what’s the benefit of those stuff
Explained in the video. Link also in description

Except the factory setup on my car was cracked. Nothing wrong wit the way it was setup 2 years ago in this video
