Oh, not another one "i also inveted a wheel"... in the line with those $5 inline gas savers.

The oil vapor is circulating in the PCV "positive crankcase ventilation" system. Now you are just collecting it for some reason. Why not start condensing moisture out of all air inside and outside the car and then praise the device for the "unwanted" water it "trapped"...

Well after about 30k miles look down your throttle body. YOu will see enough black crap to possibly fill a mason jar that is coating the inside of your entire throttle body. Compare another yaris who has done this mod and guess what. It will be spotless.
