Your truck would haul *** with 50* air! Man it was running like a bat out of hell at LS fest too and that air sucked...

The outlet port on the side of the can is above the bottom of the filtration system and that goes to the vacuum port on my blower.
We was just discussing this sort of thing in Petraszewsky's thread. Hopefully he is reading over here too.

Data log crankcase press/vac with and without the line hooked up to the intake. In the unhooked scenario just let it vent to atmosphere.

It definitely worked. It didnt have a drastic effect on my IAT, but I'm glad i went through the effort... peace of mind if nothing else.

A 2 bar map sensor should work just fine.

So your saying some is adding in a sensor to monitor it. Right.

I thought you were implying that it could be monitored in stock form. That's why I was lost.

Sorry to confuse. No, to my knowledge there is no way to log in stock form. You'll have to add a 2 bar sensor somewhere, like maybe in the valley plate. You use a 2 bar because it'll show vacuum and pressure.

That wouldnt be hard at all actually. The stock PCMs have EGR, and AC pressure on 5v inputs that can be hijacked temporarily. I have my methanol pressure going through my ac pressure via a transducer I got off ebay. Would be very easy to do the same thing for crank case pressure.
