I'm making a custom hard pipe for the turbo Inlet as we speak and was wondering if people have had any good experience with running a mini breather filter on the left side of the valve cover "T". I wanna know before I complete the pipe if I should make a bung on the pipe for the hose to hook up to!

i run the "T" like this
Front of t goes to catch can which goes to inlet on hotside of pipes, the side that points to the cabin goes down into the actual block. and then i have the pcv on the intake side run into the intake manifold.
pic is not the best angle, but only one i have right now and you can kinda see what im talking about

This is legit and the minimum you should do. I wish more people would realize the benefits of routing it properly. Breathers do not belong on pcv systems...
I took it a step further in the past with a hard line to keep the hose from sucking shut when it gets soft with the heat of the mani.

I seen it happen on the dyno.
And then I had blu808 mod a new valve cover for me so it works more like an s14/15 cover.

and on my next setup im going to not rout back to the turbo inlet or can, but rather run a venturi in the exhaust and that is mostly not because its goign to be any better but because Im going to be running a blow through maf and I run e-85 and there might be negetive effects of the alch vapor running through the maf.

I was looking at those valve covers lastnight and i liked what i was reading! for now I'm just gonna run the stock setup minus the catch can i already have on the right side of the T. I'll probably get the valve cover setup and run the proper lines that way. Thanks for the Info!
