Default Breather for pcv

Hey, i built one of those home made intakes from team sol international, and after doing it and noticing another car on the forums, that it would have been a load easier to put a breather on for the PCV. Are there any drawbacks or advantages to this? I know that tube sticks down a mile into the piping, so I may plug the hole and put a breather on it for less air flow restriction.

At least use a catchcan. Breathers tend to leak oil and make a mess out of things. Use your stock hose or get a catch can.

your going to ruin your engine. the breather needs to be "sucked on" it looks for vacum. if you put a breather on it it wont recieve vaccum. i hope this helps.
