MetroMPG asked you to provide the EPA certification for this Dynovalve thingy, and you have yet to deliver.
I asked you to provide a theory of operation on your device, and you first responded with some college-level synopsis of where PCV came from.
Can't help a guy for assuming the worst of a person who claimed to have read this entire thread.
Now, answer the questions we posed to you.
Where is the EPA certification for this device?
How do you manage to prevent the engine computer from compensating for the lean condition introduced by your controlled vacuum leak? |
EPA Certification is defaulted with the CARB exemption of which we have two
Lean condition compensation is factored by the PCM and calculated against the additional combustibles being ingested into the stream, but again good working O2 sensors are crucial to the operational feedback.
Put plainly the Dynovalve does not flow more than a PCV Valve, it just operates over a broader RPM range. As far as the PCM programming is concerned, PCV valve flow (loss) is incorporated into the base programming of any electronically controlled fuel injection system, hence it's ability to compensate accordingly. This is because the PCV valve is essentially a "dumb" device and responds solely to a highly subjective signal.
As far as my Acura is concerned I can only cite my personal findings. I've never felt the need to pull any dyno tests on the car other than tailpipe with my Enerac 700 analyzer. I will post findings from our lab for the comparison you want though.
