best way for catch can install
what the best way to set up a greddy catch can...would u hook up just the pcv to the can or get both Pcv and the pipe that goes to the intake...this is a Turbocharged engine too BTW thanks
i was doing some research on this topic last week and this was the best thread that i could find. its got some good info and their is a reply that talks about a thread from "dasher" that one is good too

After talking to a few people and tinkering. I think i am going to route the old pcv valve into the catch can and the other side of the can into the exhaust..this way it sucks the oil out and can burn it up in the exhaust... Or let it just drain to the ground....
What do you folks think? I just have an issue with rpouting the other side into the turbo inlet filter.

you dont want to suck the oil out. you want to vent the crank case pressure
the proper way to do it is vent the 2 plugs in the back of the block

Two ways:
Use plug on back of block to one catch can. Then have two fittings welded into your valvecover and run hoses off them to ANOTHER catch can.
Or pretty much the same as above except you run the hoses to your exhaust piping and using the slash-cut method, it uses exhaust vacuum to suck cranckase pressue out of motor.
Notice I did not mention anything about a PCV valve, cause on a turbo honda YOU REMOVE IT!
Here is an ok pic on where the lines come from the back of the block.

Here is a nice picture of how to do the fittings on your valvecover.

Would I benefit at from doing this:
Run a line from the former pcv spot on valve cover to a nipple on the catch can. Run the other line from the nipple on the catch can to the breather box on back of block. Then run a line from the ventilation nipple on the valve cover into a slash cut tube on the waste gate.
My car is really lacking space and everything is super tight under the hood. I am looking for the easiest way to offer some ventilation w/o contaminating my intake charge and turbo. I also do not want to run the slash cut tube into my downpipe.
I have a sealed catch can and the valve cover from a 99 Integra LS, so the pcv is in the valve cover.
W/O welding nipples on the front of the valve cover and w/o using the freeze plugs to replace the oem box, what are my options?
Sorry is some of this sounds like it does nto make sense, i am a tad jumbled from reading so many pages of info and all after working all day.
Thanks in advance for any help!

well, i do not want any of the junk to back flow into the intake manifold. I was thinking to run the oem pcv valve system and just use the nipple that goes from the valve cover to the intake and run it from the valve cover to the catch can and from the catch can to the exhaust.
Will that do anything?

Currenty, the valve cover on the car has the pcv valve removed and a line running from the oem breather box to the former pcv valve spot. Then a line from the breather nipple to a catch can and from the catch can to the ground. (temporary until I have time to remove the exhaust and weld in a tube for vaccum.
I am going to also weld two bungs into my valve cover then run them to a seperate catch can as well. When i do that, I do not need to pull vaccum on that can? I just route a line in from head and then back out to the head?
Just want to be sure I am not cluttering my engine bay for no good reason. I have enough of that already
