I have been following your write up on here and nice work! I am interested in this setup. I just bought my 240 w/S15 swap from my buddy and this thread got me looking into what he had done. He has run from the valve cover straight to a catch can and then it stops there. Is this a problem? And if so is this set-up the solution?
Thanks

S15 are slant tops, they don't really have this problem but yes in general it should go back into the intake..... from your catch...

this is a super stupid ass question... the tube from the valve cover originally that goes into that pipe on the block that's a bitch to move goes straight to the oil pan? I should probably check my fsm but hey it's a free bump for you lol.

nah like I said before... slant tops don't have this problem because the crankcase tube already flows into the well designed valve cover (slanted top for a reason) so you just need to probably put a catch can between teh front VC tube and your intake...

Just consider you guys lucky...

This is that restrictor that one guy was talking about. Do you guys know if we need this or not? It goes between the "T" and stock catch can.

I guess you guys didnt catch that this was an S14.3 valve cover, MA motorsports is doing it for a fee. Notice the slant back but no VTC clearance thing up front....

Yes it was caught.... You still are looking at 400 dollars.... You do it for me for 200 with the two vavle covers I gotta source the cutting and the welding....

If you can do it, then please sell it to me cause I would buy it....

Oh in case you didn't see that valve cover is for sale in the for sale section right now. How much is it, guess what its 400 bux....

Otherwise you aren't adding any help to the thread....

All this looks like a rerouted version of stock.... If you think about it, it all goes back to the same place except there's a catch can in between it.

In the stock form all the oil goes back into your intake. In this modification, all the oil is preserved in your motor. It is NOT rerouting the stock way. This also eliminates the probability of any oil making it to your intake....

If by your means stock way then really all SR20's are routed this way with an added catch can.... Same as slanted tops....

haha, I didnt catch that. I was too distracted by the 10 gal catch can lol.
Nice looking valve cover.
I still would get rid of the filter and run it back to the turbo inlet. Your engine is getting some un metered air when the pcv is operating via the filter and valve cover.

Acually those are my soon to be wifes titties and yeah she is hot.

I wonder if the direction of the intake bung matters.... I personally think it might because of how it sucking air.... I dunno I have to ask luke and think about it, but I unmetered air IS after the MAFS. I need to run the tube before the MAFS. Well I have an HKS mushroom right now and it has an adapter.... Maybe I can do something about that.....
