express pressure that builds up inside the engine is pushed out through those hoses and into a can of some sort or out through the exhaust.

Re: sorry for the newbie question but... (bigbeasta4)

on race engines alot of pressure builds in the motor,

due to the fact they are wide open and there is no vacum to operate a pcv system, additional breathers are needed to vent this pressure
