    This is exactly what their site says "The back plate of the AOS features a unique coolant routing system that heats the entire AOS to the same temperature of the engine. This maximizes the evaporation of any water collecting inside of the can. The hotter the AOS, the less water will collect...

    I agree I think the IAG is awesome. From reviews and talking to other tuners/builders it seems the IAG is the best AOS for sure. Its huge compared to both the Perrin and Crawford. Hopefully this fixes my problem. Thanks for the kind words :) it should be installed by next weekend hopefully!

    PCV valve and splitter removed. My valve had been pretty jammed up with gunky oil. The Grimmspeed aos didnt do its job at all. and what we figure is where the valve was blocked it was building up more pressure and leaking around the seal and causing the GS AOS to not work properly. Next...
