DSport... Looks like you are only using one bank (Pass) instead of both... why is the thinner hose connected to the lower plenum/collector? instead of capping off the last hose (Single outlet) couldnt you just put a breather filter on the end of it? I have the same catch can that i am trying to install on a Vortech SC G35...

If you're looking at just the last few pics he was trying to get it back to normal or use it as a regular can using the passenger side pcv only.

I can't remember the vortech piping. If you want to use this can you need to take the driver side outlet of the ARC can to the intact tract like the instructions.

So the last few pics werent final? rookie, now when you say take the driver side outlet to the intact tract what do you mean? I am thinking that the driver side outlet should join up with the intake hose that isnt plugged in since i dont have an inlet for it with the vortech piping... would this be suffice?

Where does the driver side breather on the backside of the valve cover go with the vortech set up? I've never looked that close at the hose configuration.

That didn't sound right so I called caskyline and asked him. He says the kit includes a hose to extend the drivers side breather to the air filter.

Page 12 and 13 describe the hose and there's a picture on page 13 where it connects to the air filter.

Based on that. Install the ARC can like the instructions say to, and take the single port side of the ARC can to the air filter so it returns back to the intake tract.

Yeah caskyline mentioned the new filter he got from Vortech didn't have the port either. He made it a new port like his original filter. I bet Vortech would have an answer to why the new filters don't have the port, at least they should.

Well i talked to my friend Daniel NS_350GT and he has a NRG catch can with one hose going to the driver side PCV and the other hose just releasing to the atmosphere as his filter doesnt have the inlet either... he has no smoke and no probs with his catch can so far...


so i took his advice and this is what i did... took it for a drive didnt see any probs or smoke...tomorrow on my drive to work will be the ultimate test... Thanks for all the insight Rookie!
