Filter WTF
 

HEy guys if u guys click on this link http://videos.streetfire.net/video/a...fwhp_64923.htm you will see that a 3.4L V6 alero has a filter where the oil cap supposed to be...
My question is why does he have a filter where the oil cap supposed to b?
:drunk:

It does nothing beneficial, and that guy is retarded. :lol:

oh wow lol...

Ya look at how awesome his intake is, it's a piece of dryer vent tubing. He has a custom plate that brags 200FWHP which is NOTHING to brag about, and he only makes like 160 LOL. I'm at work so I can't click the link but I'm pretty sure this is the spider guy.

lol...

Yeah it's spider guy.

Good work with the powercoating, but the filter where the oil cap goes is a problem. Oil will spray out eventually and would lower the oil pressure in the engine and cause problems.

Intake, Home Depot Speical. It works, but it doesn't work as well as an actuall intake. ;)

BTW that Alero isn't putting out 200 at the wheels. Jackel and I are the only NA guys that I know of that close or at that mark ;)

and you know exactly what he has done to his car just by watching that video right?

He put up a dyno video and made about 162WHP.

that filter has a purpose. its kinda like an intake for your oil, its the cheap route to the oil cooler. its supose to filter the engine bay air and send it to the oil to keep it cooler during opperation, used on a lot of older engines but is universal. I don't think it would give much of a benifit to a moderatly upgraded 3400 though.

:rolleyes2:


I think before I post :rolleyes2:

My information was directed at Gr1m, it supports your post..

You're thinking of breather filters, not to replace the oil cap.

This was done on older cars that had a breather on the valve cover with a tube going to the air cleaner, usually the other side had a PCV valve.

Not really a goog idea to pull out a PCV valve and put a filter like that in it's place either. It has something to do with emissions

Ya, things are set up to re-route to the intake for a reason, POSITIVE crankcase ventilation, PCV, not atmospheric ventilation.

I know buddy ;)

Oh now I get it. Lol, nevermind..

That Poor Riced out Ho.

Yeha the stickers gotta go, but other than that, it's a good starting point. The engine is clean :cool:

^I wish I could see the video, because if it's spidercar, he has a LOT more to fix than just the stickers.

holy crap! i think my life would have been so much better had i not seen that! lol... is that shag/carpet on the interior?

ive never seen such nice a pillar gauges with such a ghetto rigged intake? lol and ditch the decals. hahaha
