The nice part about all that is that the vent mod actually does work to drop crancase pressures, Helps to keep the oil from leaking out aroung the head gasket and helps the prevent the carbon deposits that could clog your oil pickup screen and ruin your engine and/or turbocharger.
Finally Saab comes up with a fix for a problem that works prettty well and someone tries to do it right and replace all the mushy hoses as well and you flame them on the board...nice.
If you look at the back of your valve cover and follow the small hose with the little white cannister(check valve) in the middle of it you will see that one end attaches to the intake and one either goes to the valve cover(black thing on top of engine) or to where you check the oil at(dipstick tube) if it is still attached to the valve cover you still need this modification. But hey have your indy just buy the kit fir $35 and do the job and waait for him to call you and tell you that at least 2 of the 3 hoses are mush and unusable and it is going to cost you $200.00.
