to those who have front mounts

I'm wondering what most guys are using or have done with their oil pipe after installing their front mount IC? Do you just install a K&N type filter at the end or use a catch can? Damn, so many vacuum hoses to plug up as well. The Greddy was a BITCH to install since I had just the IC and the top pipe. Everything had to be custom made. I'll post pics soon. It came out nice though.

I mean the oil pipe ...going into the turbo inlet duct. There is a check valve at the other end. The other hoses that had to be blocked off were all the unnecessary vacuum lines from the AWS and AVS. I don't need the warm up solenoid.

there are 2 hoses that go to the stock IC above the bac vavle. I'm sure he's talking about these. you should try and put them into the new IC. those are air lines though, no oil.

hopefully he's not talking about his oil cooler lines that he cut to fit the frount mount in

Shees...oil pipe. It runs across the block to the TID ..one goes to the charcoal canister and the other to the TID. One end has a check valve. If you have a front mount, you'll know what I mean. I just attached a filter on it since it's a one way valve. The 2 vacuum hoses are blocked off since I took off the warm up solenoid and everything else that's emission related.
