Makes life so much nicer without having to clean a dirty mess just incase you drip any.. I actually end up removing the valve after to allow for more oil to come out.

I heard if you make a cross cut in it 2 threads deep it will drain all of the oil out without removing it.
Did you replace the crush gasket when you removed it?

Yep, I was supposed to get it machined off but couldn't do it yet. I'll do it soon and show results

Awesome. Cant wait I need to install one cuz last time it shot out like a foot and a half past my drain pan lol.
I do the same earl change too. T6 and oem blues.
Slowly the car is getting used to the t6 I think. The cold starts are becoming less hard.
I really want to upgrade grounding points to smooth my power out and stop my parasitic drain from my hids and amplifier.
