Alright guys I recently purchased a circuit sports oil catch can for my s14 blacktop. I have asked around and searched high and low but have come up with nothing really to help me install this thing. Going off of my understanding of how things work, I figured one hose leads from the center of the valve cover (pictured first) to the catch can. Then the other hose runs from the catch can to the bung I have on my intake tube (pictured second in the right square). My question is if this is how I am supposed to hook it up then what do I do about the fitting that is on my turbo inlet where the hose orginally ran from the valve cover to the turbo (this is pictured second in the square on the left)? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanx, Cameron

I would also cover that hose with a high temp sleeve too keep you and everyone else safe.

you can take the hose from the middle of the valve cover, and go into the catch tank and the hose out of the catch tank to the original location on the turbo inlet. and just cap off the the fitting on the intake tube.

Thanx for the link Slidin. Thanx to armand. I will be getting rid of this intake tube and replacing it with a 3" intake tube without a oil catch can bung, and just running the can from the valve cover to the fitting on the turbo inlet since they are the same tract of air and this will be easier and more appealing to the eyes then running it to the bung on my original intake. Thanx for all the help guys. Cameron
