I had one on my Mk2 Octavia vRS and have seen quite a few used on those with very good power gains.
The only downside for me was the noise but if thats your thing then it can only be good.

I have a cut engine cover to fit one if anyone is interested.

It's a PCV check valve made out of billeted aluminium with hoses that stop the usual leakage of the original pcv valve.

After I installed it, my petrol consumption went up by about 2mpg. In the worse case secenario, with a complete failure of the oem pcv valve, you will see oil coming out from under your oil filler cap.

hmm, that looks like your DV.

The oem PCV valve is completely different in form and function.

yup but it's mounted from the front slam panel and not on the left of the engine bay as the charcoal cannister gets in the way.
