Correct. lol
Ok. I guess my confusion is this- there is oil collecting on the outlet side whether or not there is mesh present, right? You're saying the presence of the outlet mesh causes more pull-through because the mesh collects oil, but let's say the mesh is removed from that area. The oil is still collecting on the outlet walls, isn't it? Wouldn't that oil get pulled through anyway?
The issue is that this media works to trap and hold oil most as droplets and saturates until in then drips down to be contained for later disposal. So on the inlet side this works as intended. But if used on the outlet side, then it holds it against the outlet until it saturates to the point it is pulled right out and past the can.

This thread fills up quick! And it's really to much to read.
I bought my UPR used for a great price, so far I like it. I recently relocated it under the truck so it would stay cooler cause under good it got so hot I couldn't unscrew the "bowl" without gloves. Anyways while reading this tread I say they have a diffuser so I bought it. Now I'm reading this thread and some say to take the mesh out of the exit. UPR do you suggest this?
My theory would be take out the inlet so that the oil from the inlet isn't trapped/stored near the top. It falls straight to the button. And keeping the mesh on the exit would filter any oil if any before getting into the intake.
Can someone help me understand this?
Here is where I moved mine too.

If you ran a header collector evac system you could, but that will only work at the collector with no mufflers or exhaust pipes that could create back-pressure that would blow out the diaphragms. And of course it would not be emissions legal in any State.....
