mr death do not use the pre turbo intake as your vacuum source. the oil vapor (not oil particles captured in your catch can, but rather the OIL VAPOUR causes octane level to drop in your charge and therefore you'll get detonation. you NEED to vent to exhaust or atmosphere. the exhaust will burn up the oil vapors and filter them through your catalytic converter, so you should still be good for being environmental.

You have to drill the hole in the side of the can and JB weld the barbed fittings on which I picked up at Parts source for a couple of bucks. Princess Auto is located 6608 Dixie Road
Malton, ON.
