Vent hose....

[psmvchaser]

I just added a cold air kit and deleted the stock air intake hose, box etc.

Is the vent hose that runs from the driver side valve cover to the stock air intake box needed? I am just wondering if I should go through the trouble of reattaching it to the new system.....

Install K&N breathers on each valve cover's PCV ports. I think most people do this when they delete the stock air box.

I dont know if deleting the PCV on the pass. side cover would effect anything negatively, only that you wouldnt have to worry about it burping oil/vapors into your intake air.

you want those vapors to exit the valve covers. You need some vacuum to help them escape. Otherwise you'll be more prone to your valve seals wearing down quickly.

i removed my pvc system and put a filter there too....becuase i doubt the engine will outlast valve seals anyway :lol:
