AIS filter question
I think I am going to get the AIS system...
I am hoping the increased airflow reduces the CCV blowby getting into the intake.. Just fixed a leak in the Y pipe boots for oil...
How long on average does the element last...
Is it re-useable or disposable....? if the latter...How much do they run??

Depending on where u live they can last a long time because of their ability to
hold a lot of dust. They're typically iused on heavy equipment :

you could do a ccv mod so no oil gets into your intake. you just re-route the ccv hose to a different location. do a search there are a lot of people who have dont it and many different ways to

Can it be just vented to outside air?? with a filter?
Is there positive or negative pressure on that hose?? or just blowby?

All the AIS will do is filter the air. It won't do anything to reduce oil vapors from entering the intake system. I had the AIS and removed it because it caused the Y pipe boots to start leaking. The restriction gauge was always showing half restricted from the day it was installed.

I have read of others showing a restriction with the AIS. Maybe my stock PSD is heavy breather. I had a problem and took it off. The AIS still won't do anything to get rid of the blow by vapors. It's an air filter and nothing more.
