This would give you all the fittings you would need to get everything plugged up and working right:

Plus if you use it "off-road only" mode at the track it will provide more venting for blowby than the stock setup.

I'm sure some people have stock cans laying around too, my old one is probably somewhere under my bench in my shop, so ask around your local Honda community.

The Greddy can can replace the stock can, but it has no baffles and I don't know if it will return oil to your crankcase or if it will fill up.

Freeze plug with grey Permatex on it, they include one in the Endyn kit.

Yes, you need it. If you search "PCV" you'll find a lot more about it.

Basically, your engine (crankcase) produces a great deal of pressure under load because of compression blowby past the rings...and so the gases (oil vapor) needs somewhere to escape. The PCV system vents the crankcase gas out of the block, and back into the intake manifold to be re-combusted.

Now, that little black box makes sure that its only air getting back into the intake manifold and not oil.

Found this...a good thread: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1071924
