like v8 guys have its a vacuum pump that pull all the unwanted crankcase pressure out the crankcase to free up more hp and theres lots of other good thing about it

very good for a turbo car becouse they dont pull vacuum under load

someting like that would most definitely be custom, but if and when you'd decide to do sometihng like this, you'd have to source a motor to generate the vacuum, and also know what a desirable vacuum reading would be. If you run something and its a little off, who knows if you'll be fine or if something catastrophic is going to happen..

Summit sells vacuum pumps but they are very expensive. I thought about getting one but just can't justify the cost...

I like your Idea I have been thinking about this myself. I guess you could get a cheap one (not for automotive use) but I am not sure if it would pull enough volume of air to creat a vacum. I know some older GM cars had vacum pumps not sure what they where for but they are quiet loud.

Do it old school and just get a inline one way valve running from the block and head and lead into the exhaust line. The flow of the exhaust will create a natural vacum and the one way valve will let the exhaust pull, but cant let it go back in.

And then you get a nice smoke screen.
