The bottle says you can use your PCV valve also, I've always used the brake booster line, but I tried the PCV valve just recently. I like using that hose a lot more, gets your intake and more of the engine. I remember reading that using the brake booster gets part of the engine while the PCV gets most of it. If I'm wrong then someone correct me. But I'm pretty sure I'm right.
Also it seems to get the job done more using the PCV, at least it did for me

I don't mean to highjack this tread but I ran a test on how my driving will affect mpg.
Driving like an a$$ - 20.5-21mpg
Driving normal - 23-24 mpg
Driving like a grandma, never took it over 3k rpm, a lot of costing - 27.5mpg
The mods I have in my car ar SRI, RRM udp, Flowmaster exhaust, headers, no cat.
