I have been down this road. I have a lmr breather on the way. There is not much of anything that works except for it (hopefully I havnt installed it yet.) I hear good things from it tho, I've been fighting and oil battle ever since the blower was put on, oil spots anywhere I stopped. Hopefully this rectifies the situation.

I've got a used, black powdercoated LMR breather setup for sale. PM if interested. I'm switching to a catch can system without venting to the atmosphere.

Do you offer them in a powder coated black color? If so, could you post up a quick picture? I'm VERY interested in your Xmas special.

Thanks Rob for all of your help and answering my questions. I will call you back in a few weeks for one of your meth kits that we talked about.. I forgot to ask you, on the new converter, what is the stall on it?

I spoke with the folks at A&A today and they say their kit solves the blow back issue. No catch can is required. I am no mechanic but I was told they have solved the issue. Why do you think their kit is deficient?

PVC design / re-design related? Did they tell you exactly what their solution was to the increased internal stress(es) / pressure on the seals on a forced induction setup? Inquiring minds wanna know.. lol.

Yes it has something to do with the redesign of the PVC tubing. Like I said I am not much of a mechanic but I would call A&A before spending $600 on the LMR breather.
