Simply stated, the higher the hp, the higher the blowby, and a race car would blow that cheezey little PCV valve out of it's grommet like a wine cork.
we are not talking about high hp race cars though. we are talking about the totally stock car sitting in Everymans garage.
we dont really need to know the HOW we need to know the WHY.
i believe that is his original question.
he wants to know WHY a PCV is recommened over a breather.

His last post does have a point, a lot of techical data showing why a PCV is a good idea has been posted. the other side started to sound like a lot of politicians trying to answer a question they really didnt know anything about.
