Well, I did not convert mine for looks. I wanted to stop the Blow-By from getting into the Air Filter Element and at the same time I was able to utilize a fairly new on the market Fram Washable Air Filter (Amsoil also has one).
So on my set-up I used something larger as the Breather and inserted the Blow-By outlet closer to the Turbo and away from the Air Filter. No more Air Filter contamination by the Oil Vapor.
The Fram Washable Air Filter (I have 3 Vehicles using their Washable Air Filters) is not a Cloth Gauze type Filter and needs no Oil Coating and washes with Dish Soap.
That is saving me the expense of buying New Filters.
Also Fram made a Washable Filter for my Van and I had to do zero modification to use it. The Normal Fram Throw Away Air Filter starts with the letters CA; the Washable ones start with CA.
See the Fram Site for more info.
