I saw that before. Sorry, I just still don't get it. I'd probably just have to see it in person. I don't get what I'm seeing in the pictures that have been posted, and I don't really understand where you are connecting things based on the diagram. Partly because I know there are/were other connections whether stock or now, supercharged.

Line from intake to ipf can, one cap is plugged on 3 port can and the other line to the rt valve cover as an air inlet. no check valve here. The only reason a can is used here is 1. it was already mounted and there, 2. it will offer some protection from any unwanted moisture entering the system from the intake in the rain and any venting oil oil vapors entering the sc inlet. This is your fresh air inlet.

line from left valve cover to inlet on second can,
line from 2nd can on a one way boost proof valve to the intake manifold for suction to draw air through the crankcase. when in boost this closes off.

This second catch can has a one way vent on top to relieve pressure in case there is positive pressure present.

I added a oil breather cap that will also only allow venting of pressure to be sure there is no way to pressurize the system.

So Sycraft are they going to come up with some sort of kit for this. This is very similar to what J&M performance did to mine, minus the oil cal pressure relief.

not real pleased with the bracket, but it works..... It came with the can and I wanted it in. May look at fabbing a custom one...

you may want to use a non valved can on the air inlet so pressure can be released and it will catch moisture in or out.

Thanks for the heads up. Going to look at a elite can for that.

I'd ask for cream and sugar with that.
