After installing it this last saturday I checked it yesterday and that was when I noticed that it was half way between H and L. I know bolt on parts wont' cause a engine to burn more oil. But it does release a lot of back pressure causing more vaccum in the engine, that does sound correct doesn't it?
not meaning to be rude, but from day one my oil has always been at the halfway point between H and L and has never been higher or lower than that and i believe the very same thing was talked about in another thread as to where the oil should be at on the dipstick.

P.S.

i bought my Z brand new with only 5 miles on it from the factory.
