To me it's like puting catalytic converters on a vehicle, when they are completely useless and restrictive ( sorry to all the people who live somewhere with inspections and regulations.) Thank God I live in a free state like Wyoming where there aren't such meaningless rules.
The "meaningless rules" have nothing to do with a PCV...
