Now we're talk'n. I knew you guys have been holding out on me.

J.Belknap, did you run the mann-hummel CCV on your ride? I like the depth load filter they're using. I'd say that's a damn good option.

acpstunts, That's right on the money to where I was headed. Are there any draw backs to getting rid of the CCV entirely with your set up? I'm with you on running a closed system. I understand that if you vent to atmosphere you can induce ring flutter on the pistons due to pressure differentials, etc. NOT GOOD! Snap some pics of your E53 install and let us know how it goes.

RB, German Auto Solutions is the diggy bomb. I will be getting their Disa kit, Vanos seals, and Rad-Cap. If they approve me as a Beta tester for their unit, its gonna get a test at 8,000ft at Peter Sinks. It hits upwards of negative 60's (F) at times up there. It ranks as one of the coldest places on earth...... the worst place for a failure, but the best place to test it. My last X5 saw -46F and handled it like a champ. All in all, I'm a prime candidate for a failure due to my short trips to campus, with very little highway time. I just drive around burning fuel and making special high heat/speed runs out in BFE in an attempt to burn some damn cheese.

Here's a Pic of the micro-station and elevation profile.
