Catch can setup for F23 w/ Moroso dry sump breather tank (smaller pics)
Okay my hometown is the same as Moroso so I figured i go down and talk to the techs in person. They recommended Unit # 85470 for my application, a dry sump breather tank w/ one nipple. The pic below shows you what is included in this package.
So that's the kit. Now the tech guys said i had 2 options. I could plug off the PCV system and use that hose and tee it off with the other valve cover openin for ventine crankcase fumes and send them as one hose into the breather tank. However, that PCV hose is teed off to send a vacuum source to my WG. So i im just gonna keep the PCV system i think cause they said that was alright and just use the other valve cover hose that originally was rerouted back into the stock intake pipe. They said that should be sufficient.. what do you guys think? here are pics of everything.
Now this pic is showin where the exhaust mani ... do you see that gold bolt or plug that is pluggin the mani where a o2 sensor might go... is that gold bolt ok to tap into for an EGT probe?
Last question: do you see where my air filter is goin from the turbo? is that okay for now.. i think im gonna get a super high flow filter by HKS and replace it... i may actually also relocated my battery to behind my passenger side seat. what do you think?

you can tap the gold bolt for egt but to make the egt worth its money you should tap on the manifold near the collector. (ideally you should have an egt monitor for each runner but thats just not practical for street usually) i suggest the egt in manifold, or if you sell that and get a wideband, that hole looks like a prime location for a wideband sensor to screw in.
as for the vacuum its hard to tell since te pics are so big and keeping track of all the black lines and scrolling back and forth. i suggest cleaning some of them up and doing your method of doing away with the pcv part and route that to the catch can, keeps the mani cleaner and less gunk in it. u should get a vacuum box (golden eagle sells one?) and then you can tap it into brake booster line along firewall, or at least just one main boost/vac source and run your bov/wg/ebc/boost gauge with it and it will be less hoses to come off (even though with zipties youre probably good). it would make things cleaner and simpler to work with later on.
