Default catch can and air filter pic's

my list of little mods is coming together.

got the oil catch can on, i had to tap out the holes from 1/8"npt to 3/8"npt and use bigger fittings with bigger hose barbs to match up with the pvc hose the turbo kit came with. i also extended the air filter down to a spot behind the bumper and removed the cut out in the bumper. i also have the big heat exchanger, water instead of antifreeze in the intercooler, much bigger cut out, ac delete, roll pan in place of bumper, and better control of the timing with the latest version of edit. chuck says i will have the tranny on friday but sometimes he underestimates how long things will take. shouldn't be too much longer before i get to drive it again.

no, it just goes into the drivers side valve cover. i would like to have an aditional vent just incase the blow by is too much to get thru that hose but the only thing i can think of is a filter in place of the oil filler cap. that is kind of close to the turbo header, it would be bad if it got saturated for some reason and started puting oil on the turbo header. i dont think it would see much oil if any. i bet there is some prety good suction on the line right in front of the turbo like it is.

i would put that oil filler line to it to more relief the better. i know a guy that has one in his integra he has two on the valve cover and one or two on the block the catch can filters out the oil from air then send the oil back into the oil pan like the turbo does. but then again crank case pressure on hondas has been known to blow of spark plug wires. i know its not a honda just putting it in to respective.
