5psi drop at what air flow?

the excess air coming from the engine thats being recycled back to the intake. that air is whats being filtered due to oil that goes along with it.
i could be wrong though so check with the person that did this already im still in the process..

psi drops depend on the amount of air being forced thru them. if you were to blow thru the filter with your lungs you would not be able to generate a 5psi pressure drop. it would take an extreme amount of air flow (air compressor) to generate that 5psi drop.

the minimal air coming out of the valve cover is not going to cause a 5psi "drop" in this filter. i'd imagine you'd see no drop at all actually.
