Wow! I'v had mine on for weeks, about 300 miles and I barely have any oil in it. Maybe about 2 drops or so. There is more water than anything in it.

Even though you use a catch can, it won't "catch" all of it. In a closed system, some will still go into the intake and get burned up. In an open, vented system, some will disappear into atmosphere.

I just got arrested for dailing driving.
The Krankvents have almost eliminated my oil usage. Amazing is a good way to describe it.

I love my Krank Vents. Got them at http://www.automotivespeed.com/
The shipping is super fast and online ordering is easy. Is a catch can necessary for all of us? I don't have one currently, but I would get one if it makes things safer as safety is my ultimate goal.

A catch can isn't a necessary thing for cars but if you've got a daily car you can just pick up the parts at home depot to make a cheap one or if you have a show car (or want something that looks nice) you can pick up an aftermarket one.

I kept switching the front krank vent out, and honestly I couldn't tell the difference. The one for the PVC certainly helped, but the front one didn't seem to do much.
With only the back one installed, I've only used about 1ML of oil in 4k miles(that is what I caught in my homedepot catch can). And my dipstick hasn't moved from the full mark.
My butt dyno tells me the PVC one is helping, but we all know how reliable those are!
