How/where would the filters be needed? If I remove the baffles, do the new lines just feed into a singular location underneath? And what size tubes/filters would be needed?

We ended up cutting the set I had into the 1 inch pieces you see below from that plastic baffle to the Cai. Would I remove those plastic baffles and run the pcv to something directly underneath it on both sides?

Can't tell, too many decalZ in the way.

Regardless, I've never had issue with silicone hoses when I use a bit of PBlaster silicone spray on whatever I'm attaching the hose to.

Noooooo. You will get the full-on gas/oil/*** smell in the interior of the car with filters running straight off the PCVs.

That's why in a prior iteration I ran the vent hoses into the wheel wells and attached filters there.

That’s why apr, part of the driven products brand dropped all their stage 2 tuning and hardware and even scrubbed their website of all their rs3 stage 3 BT 9.0 quarter mile runs. This is goin to start hitting smaller fish like FI at some point too. I know I probably sound like “omg, the sky is falling” but it’s a big deal, mark my words. Ironically, I don’t really have a dog in this fight since our ttrs with a stage one tune, full emissions systems intact, will make 500 hp and on e-85 it’s 565 hp and run mid tens and that’s good enough for me and wifey sine it’s an hpde car, but it’s still feels like this is the end of an era, must’ve been a feeling like this in 1970...

They (epa) came down hard first on the diesel stuff bc of the stupid show and all the idiots “rolling coal” social media vids. Now they’ve put the fear of god into Holly et al and I’m waiting for the next aftermarket co to get hammered. The domestic car aftermarket is bigger so they’re just working their way down the ladder.

Quadzilla was in trouble with the EPA years ago. It put them out of business. Yes, that was the diesel world. The EPA has bigger fish to fry in the diesel world with all the Particulate filter deletes.

Yanked the W brace and associated other braces in preparation for dropping the trans. They're a tad rusty so I figure I'll sandblast and repaint for a winter project.

Also, I'm building this monster.

With the way lumber prices are, that table will cost you more than a turbo kit. :icon17:

Bought the blueprints for $30. Guy wants $15,500 for him to build it his own self, not including tools. From-scratch materials and tools list for a DIY was $4,100. Did the math and with what I already have it's only $1,100.

Fvck, I want one. Just watched auto mundial from couple days ago and they covered it. :yum:

Wife still wants a 4c. Too bad I literally don’t fit and needed someone’s help to get me out of it, wound up crawling out on my hands and knees at the dealership coup,e years ago when we looked at one, very amusing to all the other shoppers. :icon17:

Not bad at all considering my router table alone was $1k.

You can remove the baffles and run the hose from where the baffles was to the cai port.

You're not to run filters with catch cans. If you do, you're NOT pulling a vacuum all the way through the system. Nothing is coming from the valve covers to the intake manifold. It's going from the filters to the manifold.
