The can still functions the same. Their ability to filter is out oil and acids from combustion is remarkable. The E2 does offer a dual port set up for two vacuum lines. Having the second vacuum line is a must on forced induction vehicles. Without the second port when you go full throttle there is no vacuum. So technically the catch can isn't doing anything and all that oil vapor is getting burned at full throttle. This can cause your a/f ratio to be off and it can even cause knock. With the second port in place near the air filter you will always get vacuum even at full throttle. On a roots style blower you start making boost at just above idle so that second port is very important.
Also, there are no plastic fittings on any of the Elite products we have used.
