Thanks jpat. I have the test plug now but I think I would feel alittle better with the jim cap. When people say "if something could go wrong it probably will" they are talking about "me".

Put a lock nut on the test plug and you are good to go. I hate the way it looks when you pop the hood and it is missing the resinotor box. Looks like sh it in my opionon. I like the stock look. If there is a lock nut on the plug it can not back off.

i got a cap from the local pluming store, its not heat resistant and may not last as long as a test plug. but it just looks better and makes me feel safer. a lock nut on a test plug is just as safe just dont look as clean.

what kind of gain would i get out this mod on my 2004.5 silverado duramax lly 4x4?? and if i plan on getting a new turbo, will this mod still be beneficial?

No perf gain at all,the resonator is there to quiet the turbo whine,shame on GM

There is no performance gain. But it keeps oil from getting sucked into the turbo and filling the intercooler. It is just a safety mod.

Thanks! Going to install this weekend.

All installed, the LMM is a different type of plumbing it uses hard plastic tubes with no room or flex to hook it up like previouse D-Maxx's with rubber lines.

Hey psyco, After running that for a few weeks is your filter on the bottom of you hose all black and covered in oil/soot?

Hey I like your install! What kind of black hose did you use?

1' - 5/8" Heater Hose (Shucks Auto)
1' - 3/8" Fuel Hose (Shucks Auto) or more depending on filter location Keep it high that T-Connector to keep it from getting oil soaked.
1" Bar Stool Leg End Cap (Ace Hardware)
5/8" to 5/8" T-Connection with 3/8" out to the Breather (Shucks Auto)
3/8" Breather Filter for Import (Shucks Auto)

Hose Clamps for 5/8" (On Breather line coming from heads) and 3/8" if you like the T-Connector is a very tight fix and since it only allows air into the crank case there is no pressure.
