First with some reading

And now onto the pics

As you can see
Back one runs to the intake nipple
Middle runs to Drivers side rear valve cover
Front runs to air duct on the inlet of the procharger

Also have the Oil breather cap with the check valve
and a EXTRA breather on the passenger side Valve cover as seen

I like the setup. I believe for mine, I can reuse my Norris Motorsports can and install the breather on the oil fill. Im going to PM the thread creator over there just to be sure.... can't wait for FI!

Does the extra breather on the passenger side valve cover also have a checkvalve in the line?... type? where did you get the checkvalve from?.. ..also, so the breather in the oil fill area also has a checkvalve integrated right in it?... I have been looking at this setup for some time but didnt think I would have room for that big of a cannister... but it looks like it fit ok.... looks good..

Chuck,

Metco makes the oil fill breather with check valve, and id echo the question about one in the valve cover breather...

Edit just saw they don't list a check valve... odd... that's the part the guy references on camaro5...

I have not installed a check valve i put it in about 3 months ago cause mine kept pushing oil out of the rear mail area after beating on the car(with a brand new Rear main) my explanation would be the 1.5 years of spray weakened the rings the rings a little and was getting some extra blow by....

At the time i decided the system needed some extra help so i just bought a small breather and added it to the passenger side valve cover.

And yes the oil breather in the oil cap breather has a check valve in it.

Yea i made it fit and looks pretty good where its sits.... just had to get a little inventive with the meth tank/procharger washer tank and the brackets they gave me... but worked like a CHARM!

For us FI cars, another HUGE benefit is removing the restriction in the driver's side valve cover:



I was getting a LOT of oil out of the rear main (as seen in my TT vs GTR vid) - once I removed the restriction, and opened up the breather on the driver's side, no more problems.

My setup goes from the driver's side valve cover -> oil catch can T's to both turbo inlets (vacuum source to pull excess pressure).

Passenger side vent is connected to a 16" long heater hose, into a small breather (to allow fresh air to be pulled in, or any excess pressure out). Other connections are check-valved at the intake.

Makes me wonder how the RXProducts single valve [NA] can compares to a Billet Specilaties unit, also for NA applications.

Thanks Shane for recommending me to the RX catch can. This is how we routed ours for comparison sake.
