Gas Filter
In which direction does the arrow on the gas filter inline with the MAP sensor go? Does it point to the Motor or the MAP? I read in the manual that it points towards the motor, but I am being told by a buddy of mine that it goes the other way. Also, does a gas filter act the same as a check valve? Thanks for the help.

so, would that mean that you should be able to blow through it either way? Or is it still a one way operation? I should have to blow in the direction of the arrow in order to blow through it, or will it work either way? I know a check valve can only be blown in that 1 direction.

So it actually does nothing more than filter the air in and out of the sensor. I am being told that it is a check valve that only provides boost to the MAP. But from my understanding it should need to see both. It's hard to convince this guy once he gets something in his head.

Which matters more getting it in the car correcly or (this guy's head) it's your car. Like Majik said even house air handler unit filters have a flow direction. If you've been running it one way on your car for awhile if you just turn it around all the crap that was on the manifold side will be blow into the sensor when you boost the first time, so either leave it as is or buy a new one and install it like in the vacuum diagram.
