Those of you who have it routed to the back of the truck how much smoke comes out of it? Mine seems to blow a lot of it. Or it seem like a lot to me. Its a constant smooth stream of ccv smoke. I flipped the oil fill cap over when the truck was running and it didn't blow off. Just curious to see how much is too much.

It's hard to tell without seeing it in person, or a video. A light steady haze is rather normal though. Most people don't like the haze so they put together a catch can, or leave the factory ccv route alone.

Ill see if i can get a video. I think it looks bad because of how the hose sits at the back. A lot of the smoke gets stuck under the bed and slowly bulds up as it creeps out.
