    have you had a look in the tech section?

    Should be a few tech articles with some pics to help you.

    also a pic section in the tech section which serves as a useful guide to what the motor looks like with plenum off, what your replacing etc.

    PCV re route is a waste of time (IMHO) .....


    The original pcv system has the air inlets in the inlet cam covers and the outlets (to the pcv valves) in the exhaust cam covers, creating a crossflow effect which better purges the crankcase. The re route places both hoses (inlet & outlet) in the inlet cam cover only 6" apart, which virtually eliminates the crossflow advantage of the oem setup.

    The only benefit of the re route is for track cars to help reduce the oil splash that can feed back into the pcv valves under extremely hard cornering. A catch can does exactly the same thing, but is much easier to fit and still retains the crossflow effect :cool:
