I am going to assume you're using it for crankcase ventilation. (The subject is quite debatable.) Searching "crankcase ventilation"... I've found many different set-ups and responses to particular methods. I took Aaron Cake's advice.

The catch can has a filter on top if you have a standalone, or a nice thick line to the TID if you have a stock ECU.

That's it.

Install it on the opposite side from the turbo/ exhaust, in case of a leak you want to avoid a fire. This is how I had mine installed when the AFM was used, before I installed a power fc (with a standalone you can just put a filter on the other end of the catch can)
