    Hey, I got a question about the zc. I've seen some people put a breather filter in place of the hose that runs to the intake tube. What are the advantages to this? any?

    here's a pic of what i'm talking about http://members.aol.com/cimorellicrx/crx/5.jpg

    Its more of a visual mod then anything. I had to use a breather filter on mine since I cant run it into the turbo pipe.

    Don;t run a breather filter. The hose goes into the intake for a reason, to suck out gasses from the head
    Very few of the gases that need to escape actaully wwill when you jsut ahve a breather filter on there.
    If you don;t want that oil running into the intake tube/maiold, get a catch can
    Cusco and greddy amke nice ones (Cusco is better it has baffles to keep the oil down) and they usually run about $100 US.
    I would only worry if you race(drag or road) or have high compression or a turbo
