Here's mine. You can't see everything I've done, but I ended up using a non-turbo IAC hose to connect the crankcase breather around the turbo so I could hook it up to the catch can.

You can kind of see the hose in these pictures

As for whether it works. I'd say yes.

I since put some mesh in between the inlet & outlet to help the oil condense and drop out.

Ummm....I think it was the 15mm one.


BTW, I'm quite amazed at what the mesh has done to help condense the oil. I just drove about 2,000 miles in four days, and I've got about 1.5" of oil registering in the catch can sight thingy. I've got a picture, but I've got to get it up to my server. When I do, I'll post it.

I can clearly see where the hose that goes from the intake goes into the catch can, but where does that other hose go to? Looks like it moves toward the turbocharger? Where does it end? Thanks.
