    Hey Nick--been going between this thread and the other on on Tech...and this is what you need to do:

    Here I talk about leaving the passenger side valve cover connected to the nipple on the TB...

    Then take a hose from the driver's side valve cover to the inlet side of the Catch Can, then a hose from the outlet of the Catch Can to the passenger side of the intake.

    I explained this here KINDA...but since you are running a car style intake versus a truck style, the PCV port into the intake is different. On the truck, it is on the top. On the car, it is up at the front on the passenger side behind the TB.

    And since you have the emissions crap taken out, just plug the brass nipple on the driver's side of the intake behind the TB. That should get you the correct routing.

    ALSO--that oil/water separator thing you are using for a Catch Can is not gunna work and is not a real Catch Can. Sorry to say...but you will be blowing-by it all of the time and it will fill up in a few days. Go ahead and get a Catch Can from Saikou Michi, AMW, or RevXtreme.
