   They dont work! They go in the vaccum line between the throttle body and brake servo.
   
   I repeat they dont work

   its not suppose to just increase performance
   
   what its suppose to do is make you have better fuel economy and lower emmisions too
   
   on the emmisions side it works ... we tried someones out in our garage

    ecoteks don't and never have worked, oil breather filters are technically illegal, and the fse valves work fine if you know how and why to use them.

    breathing directly to the atmosphere is illegal, should be plumbed back into the engine like on standard engines
