I have the PMS filler pipe and it has the 1" breather pipe lateral on the side facing the rear of the car ,anyone run a K&N or similar breather filter in this location with good results?.
If so do you need to mount a rain shield over it ? |

I'm going to run a hose to a catch bottle, then either run another hose to the intake, or down/out to the bottom of the car. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I had that set up forever in both Papa Smurf and Huey and always hated that after every drive/race weekend, there was oil drops and mist all over that side of the engine. Papa has a whole different system now (oil tank up front), but Huey runs to a catch can...with a filter...that still leaks a little. I'm thinking of figuring out how I can run it back to the intake. |
