        Hi,

        The oil blow by on the S54 compared to the
        Blue Oval RS500 is night and day.

        So long as your valve stem guides are in good
        condition, then unless your running a
        really heavily modified S54 that
        breaths really heavy, and sees extreme
        temps, then your just adding weight !!!!

        The std system takes the vapours back
        in to the engine via the Intake Plenum
        [Airbox] and then any small oil residue
        funnels back down into the sump.

        Most S54 airboxes I have ever seen
        are usually free from any large scale
        oil deposits / contamination etc..

        I have a small oil catch tank on the
        S54 in the E30 M3, feeding directly
        of the breather, which has
        a level indicator and after 3 years
        I have yet to see anything in it.

        Regards,

        The Gorilla.
