CCV Mod?

Hey All! I have been doing some reseach on here again and have a question on the CCV Mod. Just exactly what does it do? What is the real purpose of the Mod? I have found very detailed instructions on how to do it but have never come across why. Feed me info please! You all have been great in answering my questions in the past and I spend hours a day on here trying to pack more knowledge into my little brain haha Thanks Again!

I have made over 70 of the canister type CCV mod, which I feel is the best. I researched the different types of CCV mods and hvae come up with a great system. If you are interested send me a PM and I will give you more info. It really is one of the best non performance mods you can do for your truck.

No this oil doesn't do anything for the turbo. See the PM I sent you.

Marty,
If you mean what size hose I use it is a 3/4" heater hose, which is 5/8" ID, I experimented with larger hoses and saw no benefit. The key is the filter element, you can have no restriction whatsoever, or your PSD will turn into a oil fountain. The heater hose works fine but you can't have any low spots in the line, if there is the oil will collect and can soften the hose. Some use the clear vinyl to avoid this but I don't care for the look. I may change mine out to hydraulic line, not cheap but the oil won't affect it.
Kevin
