Could someone smart explain to me why routing a hose to the floor or using filter caps / breathers on the PCV valves is bad or good when applying it to a gen 2 coyote motor? I have a procharged s550 and would like to put a cone filter directly on the head unit (it just looks and sounds way cooler) Doing this would require me to modify the PCV setup ( its currently routed to the intake tube just upstream of the compress suction ).
I’ve seen post arguing that breather caps cause condensation to buildup in the engine, noticing a milk substance when taking the breather caps off. However, I live in a very dry / mild climate and the car is garaged so I don’t think condensate build up is that much of a concern in my situation.
I’ve also seen post arguing that breather caps don’t allow for proper gas evacuation without the differential pressure aid that routing it to the intake provides. I don’t see how this is the case considering the PCV (correct me if I’m wrong) is basically a spring-loaded check valve that operates only when there is positive pressure in the crankcase.
Any thoughts???
