    These are the best guides I have seen.

    GTP Supercharged

    GT Normally Aspirated

    ^^I realize a stock L36 is not as fast as the sticker implies, but this sticker has worked and it is still a hell of a lot of fun to drive considering it's a grocery sedan.

    Thanks guys for the replys. Is it something that needs to be replaced every so often or just left alone.

    I believe the owners manual says 30k miles, or the purolator website I can't remember. Though I've known of people running near 90k and still having a good pcv valve. It's good as long as it rattles when you take it out.
