yes it has been discussed many times before, which is why I'm surprised you have it backwards! Just look in your helms (pg. 11-159), there is a nice schematic of how the airflow goes - in through the intake, into the valve cover, down into the crankcase, then out through the pcv valve and into the IM. Also, why do you think they put the pcv valve on the opposite side, not the intake side?

I guess I will put in the front only at first to see, then make up my mind from there... (aka I will probably put in both )

Alright, today i installed them.. I installed the front one only first.. I noticed a SLIGHT difference, aka VERY SLIGHTLY noticeable.. So I said WTH and went ahead and installed the rear.. I thought the rear was'nt to much harder than the front.. it was alot easier than I had expected after reading 4bidden's write-up on it.

Well I started it up.. DAMN! Even starting the car up I immediately noticed a HUGE difference.. everything just felt SOLID, and "connected." I revved it up and whoa, talk about much better throttle response.. I went and revved it by hand and the engine hardly moves at all!! very nice..

Ok, I took it for a test drive.. man shifting really has improved, much smoother! 99% of wheel hop is GONE, amazing. Where I could barely squeel shifting into second, i now actually lose traction for about a second.. yea thats right i spin, not chirp, but spin my tires.. lol, big difference here.. The most important part.. My best time 0-60 using GTECH before was 7.14 seconds.. with no other mods except me wrapping my intake in heat wrap, on my very FIRST try.. I got a 6.74 second 0-60 time!!!!!!!!!!!! I almost can't believe still!

I am confident that I can get in the 9 second range now in the 1/8 mile no doubt.. and this is on a STOCK car besides intake, and stock ****ty ass m+s tires.. 0-60 in 6.74 is damn good, thats VTEC territory.. this is by far the best mod i have done yet, no doubt about it.. it just changes the whole feel of the car.. it really feels like a SPORTS car now..

BTW, I have my idle set at 1100, which is as low as i could get it after I did all the free mods, and it pulsates a tad more(sounds like a 20Hz tone from a subwoofer heh), but no rattling!

I give it a

damn, that review just makes me wanna install it tomorrow! im seriously considering getting these motor mounts now. aprox how much were they? btw, does the car vibrate a lot more then before at idle? maybe it doesnt as much cuz its set higher. im not sure if i want my car jumping around so much everytime i sit in the car to warm it up.

not really, It "pulsated" slightly before as well, its ever so slightly noticeable.. now on a car that idles sub 1000 rpms it might be more noticeable, but I assure you its worth it, atleast imo!

I paid $32 shipped on a group buy under the "Performance" section, here..

I had to wait a while because of a stocking issue(dont think it was his fault), and when I talked to him about it, they were at my house in like 3 days..

the difference between the front alone and both at once? I bet your gonna video tape! or somethin..

but all I know is when I put the front in i noticed hardly any difference.. with both it was a world change, no comparison.. I bet the rear only would be better than the front only..
