Well its a track only car. Also the whole cover isnt off. It is cut where the head bolts to the block. Also i wasnt saying that my setup is better than using a pump to vacuum the crankcase. However i do fully believe it is sufficient for me, as well as most other. Even at 27 psi pushing close to 400whp through my engine i have never had my dipstick pop open or any problems with my rear main or valve cover leaking. As far as the exhaust method. I think it would work if you were not running a muffler. The dyno shop i go to has a grand national. They said that with a muffler on the exhaust it created to much pressure in the exhaust in combination with the turbo slowing down the exhaust gas(which would reduce the Bernoulli's affect) to work. In fact they said that with a muffler it actually would blow exhaust into the crankcase.




The check valves are there to prevent exhaust from entering the crankcase, though that should only be a risk during a backfire, which is why you run the check valves inline.

Ive read mixed reviews of the setup on muffler cars, mostly from old school carbed v8s. Essentially it comes down to this: If your exhaust setup is creating enough backpressure to draw exhaust in, you have bigger issues. I think that goes back to the old school view that a certain amount of backpressure was necessary -- we should all know by now that back pressure is never a good thing. Maintaining maximum exhaust velocity is ideal -- if you lose power on a large exhaust its because the exhaust is given enough volume to cool down and slow down, not because you have to little back pressure.



The only people ive seen actually measure the vacuum from an exhaust evac setup are the honda guys, and they do pull vacuum with a muffler on a turbo car. I havent seen any say a turbo car will pull less vacuum, muffled or not, rather you have a greater exhaust volume on a turbo car than the same size NA motor.

Some people go as far as to run a second line to their wastegate dump to try and build even more vacuum while in boost.
