Maf? And just use some paper towels to wipe it out decently. The rest will go bye bye on its own.

DC had some nice weather this past Saturday so I upgraded my old catch can.

Major props to the folks in this thread. I was able to put together a catch can with parts from lowe's for cheap.

I used a 3/8" stainless braided line, and the fit around the plenum and PCV was a lot tighter than expected. Just for dress-up. I only started playing around with this car over the last six months. Replacing all the hoses within the next 6 months with lots of stainless lines

Sorry to revive an old thread but does anyone have detailed pictures of the hose routing for an 07-08 350z? I seem to be confused to where the hoses are going and need visual confirmation.

The first picture is from a 370z owner made but i know our setup for the HR is a little different. Can someone edit these pictures to show where the hoses are routed to exactly for the HR engine with two of the home depot catch cans?

if anyone has any mount bracket and/or mount placement ideas for each side, please chime in.

Thanks in advance

I've seen some one owner that had one on the passenger side but it didn't show where the hoses were going and i wasn't sure if he had another catch can on the other side.

i got the passenger side catch can done this weekend. I see the PCV valve but instead of the other end going to the intake manifold, it goes to the intake tube. Can someone point me in the right direction for the drivers side?

From the dead.
I capped both intake pipes and am using a mini filter vent to atmosphere on the driver side valve cover.
