Dave, this is a PROVEN power producer. This process has been around for
years, and produces big gains on car & motorcycle engines. I believe that
Smokey Yunick was the proponent of this process.

So, bottom line.  You'll never notice any HP gains (if there are indeed any,
which I'm skeptical of), and it will keep the intake cleaner.  Guys, you've
GOT to have somethign better to do with your time!  :)

It promotes better ring sealing and re-routes oily
blowby out through the exhaust instead of into the
intake manifold. Theoretically this should yield a HP
gain and keep the intake manifold nice and clean and
dry. I have a Mr. Gasket kit that I'm probably going
to install when the new 3.2 goes in.

Technically this will have a negative effect on those
with emissions testing. You may want to disconnect it
for the sniffers.
