I took my original PCV hose off and very carefully removed both ends and reused them with the braided hose. They push into the braided line with some oil as a lube and I just hose clamped it. Worked good too. I have the morroso unit by the way.

I just ordered the Moroso unit form Summit, I looked at my set-up and I have a plastic pcv valve in the line that goes to the intake manifold. I thought the pcv valve was in the valve cover. Do I leave this in place when I install the Moroso unit ? I looked at the pictures on here of the different set-ups but did not see any pcv valve in line like mine.
I've been planning to move the battery to the trunk anyway, so not too much added work involved. Guy at the hardware store suggested putting an angled extension on the drain, or attaching a small section of hose. I was planning to have a new engine installed in October, so when they pull the intercooler it will be interesting to see how much oil made it past the PCV w/o the can for the first 2000 miles.

what was it about that photo, that made you decide to install an air/oil separator?
let us know how it looks when you get it in
That is the website photo of the HP kit, the one I got but had not install yet.
The PCV valve now runs into the turbo inlet, and is always sucking, normal vaccum at idle, huge vacuum at boost, after that, the oil would run thru the turbo, intercooler, maf and so on.
I just ordered this setup, it will work correctly im hoping??

Just making sure i wont have a problem before it gets here!
Well I just ordered teh above from summit. Took me long enough I know but I have been so busy it isnt even funny. I am still going to try and rig a mount to have it come off the shock tower. We will see, worse case I will go with the filter shroud.
How much oil have you guys been catching?
I had 0 residue on my TB when I took it apart and almost none in my intake after the S/C install. I wonder if it affects some motors more than others. Better safe than sorry though.

This is after3-4,000 miles and 2 dyno pulls. That's a 15oz. "I can't believe it's not butter" bowl. The center is raised a few millimeters.

Big ups for those who put together the parts list on the first page. I just ordered a Moroso unit and all the trimmings from Summit. That list, and everything else in this thread, made finding everything easy. Figure I might as well go ahead and install the separator at the same time as the blower, when the time comes.
that was pretty smart of them, i'd like to thank them too...
let's see the pics, when yours is all put together

I plan to document the whole process thoroughly, and then do a write-up here on the site of my S/C install. Just waiting for the next month to pass for now...
