Just curious, what are you doing?

Seafoam clean the valves. I have done it on my civic/integra/corolla/odyssey/ and my brother e46 but never done it on an e90.

Be weary of Seafoam and all "fixes" that come in a bottle..proper manual clean of the intake valves will yeild a much better and safer result

i believe theres no easy access to a vacuum line on the N52. it might be possible to tap into the PCV system but its under the intake manifold and you cant really get to it.
