Just to make sure for myself, they both flow away from the engine?

Yes. Both flow away, both can't flow back and together both creat a vacuum.

I've checked my oil over 50 times since I installed the Krankvents. I added 200ml once and changed the oil recently at 5000 miles.
It remains at full with my wiping the dipstick while checking it probably using more oil than the engine running uses.

Previously (without the Krankvents) I would have added oil at least 30 out of 50 checks with a total of 6 or 7 quarts in 5000 miles.

Thanks Sideways.

So you save some $$ on oil as well with these.

Good stuff huh?

I'm still running without a restrictor on my turbo without any issues.
