Gutting pcv valve or not?

[M91]

Any benefit of gutting the pcv valve? The driver side looks gutted to me but the passenger side is not which makes me wonder is there any good in gutting it or just leave it? And what is the bad thing if i gutted it?

Study how a pcv system works then decide.

The DS isn't gutted. Its the inlet to the system

Go ahead and gut it. See what happens.

I believe i asked is there any benefits or not :shake:
I didnt say i want to gut it or i have the whole knowledge of the pcv system
Either answer my questions and i'll be thankful for it or please be kind and save the too smart to answer act for somebody other than me
Thank you

I didn't understand the closed PCV breather system either and put an open breather on my car that is sold by a vendor on this very site. My car ran fine but it is not the right thing to do so that the engine is ventilated as intended.

The thing is i saw a video on eaton swap for the MM and i saw him gutting the pcv valve he didn't mentioned why but i got curious what benefits from doing that

You should have mentioned this first. The easiest way to retain a functional PCV system on an Eaton swap is to swap it to the drivers side with a grommet, and to use the passenger side as merely an easy way to hook up the fresh air side and utilizing the valve as a hose hook up. By doing this, yes you need to gut that valve to allow fresh air in.

The actual PCV (now on the drivers side gets hard piped to the back of the blower. If you use just hose it will collapse on itself.

Lol, my favorite is an open breather on one side and PCV line still retained on the opposite:P

And the complaints about fumes in the passenger compartment.
