I clean my intake out at least once a day. With good old meth washing.

exactly you guys are running meth , some like me are not , And no one yet produced a tune for meth like livernoise for our explorer even if someone was thinking to clean their intake once a day hehehehe

But eventually companies will make it happen but at the time being we need a solution.

Found this on eBay and picked one up, debating on what to do with the rear. May cap off where I had the front filter.

Nice looking unit, Mike. Any instructions on how to wash it? A kit like K&N's?

The unit looks to have a check ball type system the may not get a lot of oil in the filter. I will see how it goes and update you guys. With this much venting, I don't think we will need to use the small K&N filter on the front tube delete area that we have been doing, so I may cap that right off.

I did just purchase a catch can for the rear and will be able to keep all oil out of the intake. That will keep things cleaner and improve my meth cleanliness.

Looks cool Mike, yeah let us know if it get oil soaked. I have had the rear breather assembly off before, but a long time ago. But I am pretty sure it sat on round rubber grommet on valve cover.

One of the guys over on GRRRR8.NET is making these for G8's, using stock oil cap and those small breathers + using a mesh filter inserted in the bottom. I have that item # so am going to attempt to make one for my Flex. Am guessing I can do it for under $30. If it works out will post a how to....

Looks pretty decent Mike.....

Report back your usage / findings as time passes by.

Looks cool Mike! It looks like your using the catch can in conjunction with the factory breather?

First-SHO · October 13, 2013, 08:48:16 PM

Catch can on the rear and breather in the front. NO oil going back to the intake!

Very nice! Please continue to update us long term as to cleanliness/effectiveness of this system. TIA.

I just ordered this breather cap as well... now wanting to put a small breather on front valve cover like one pictured by mike.

What filter is that Mike? Was it a direct fit or require some effort on your part?

First-SHO · October 19, 2013, 04:29:30 PM

It is a K&N 62-1340 breather and fits perfect, no mod needed.
