I assume that's the fresh air inlet (that normally connects to the OEM intake pipe), correct?

If so, you would either put a breather there or connect to the turbo inlet pipe (where it effectively uses the intake filter instead of its own tiny breather filter).

The hose off the PCV valve that goes to the intake manifold should remain the same, or you could put a catch can inline with it.


Yeah I was confused at first by connecting that 3/8 hose to the inlet but I figured that goes to the intake manifold.

The breather hose is 5/8 so I bought a 5/8 to 3/8 reducer and ran the breather hose to the GTR location (the metal hard pipe coming out of the turbo inlet)

Sounds like a good solution! Might as well make use of what Nissan gives you with the turbo inlet =)

I'm really enjoying your progress.

Thank you! I can't wait to finish and go ally have a car as fast as yours haha


Right now, I dropped off the turbos to the machine shop to get the manifold ports matched to the adapters. There's a slight lip due to the adapter angle. I figured might as well do it since it's cheap while it's out and might get me an extra 10-20 whp.
