build/buy a catch can... route the hose from the valve cover nipple to the can... and from the can to before the turbo... plug the nipple on the intake manifold

that'll keep things clean under the hood and keep it semi legal... just make sure to empty the can occasinly.

What i did on my last car. I put some vacumm hose on the Nipple, Than put a breather on the end of that and zip tied it around something in the back of the engine. I had it so any oil that did drip/spray out it would hit the ground and not the engine. Not legal. But. It worked for me. The breather never fell off.

I was told not to just put on a filter on the valve cover nipple....something about "piston ring and piston ring land damage can occur". What is the solution?

shortyz...what is the correct way to hook up a oil catch can? By the way what is an oil catch can?

um thats how my factory turbo car is... and how my HKS kit tells to route the PCV hose... it's not misinformation... honduhs may be differnt... the catch can is supposed to be between the 2 to college ---- crap... how are you "supposed" to install a catch can?

That web site is doing it on a car that is factory turbo charged. I was told it was different for a car that is aftermarket turbocharged.

It's the same for both. I just used a hose straight down to the bottom with no filtering at all. Well, over here they don't give a ----.
