    So people know why to do it.

    When cornering hard in an xe oil tends to get up behind that plate. This then goes into the breather system, when this is connected to the inlet it cause a puff of blue smoke.

    It is a worthwhile mod. Nothing to do with a new or old engine. I saw less oil in my catch tank doing this.

    When I bought my LET I noticed some oil in the 'afm to turbo' pipe, do you think doing the breather mod would stop this?

    On LETs the breather goes to the turbo so I think thats whats causing it.
