I have an intake that doesn't have fittings for the crankcase breather hose or charcoal canister hose on it, so I need to drill/tap for them.

Can someone give me links or point me in the right direction on which two fittings I need? I just don't have any idea which ones/size to use.

I you don't have to do emissions remove the charcoal can and as for the valve cover breather get an oil catch can or just run a hose with a little filter on the end to a place where you don't mind gettin oil that eliminates the need for both hoses
 
I do have emissions here, so I'd like to keep the charcoal canister hooked up to the intake.

As for the crankcase breather, I'd like to have a pressurized system so it performs like it should, stock.

I've taken both of those things into consideration for a while now, but I think I'd like to keep it hooked up like it is stock.
 
So you have to keep the charcoal can but I personally think that having an oil catch can is better for your motor in many ways...no oil can get into your intake/turbo... Eventually that oil will make it's way into all the intercooler lines and will gum up the lines which will reduce flow...that's my opinion and you can do whatever you like:)....as for the sizes I have no clue...don't you still have the stock intake to go off of? If not then I have a stock intake pipe for a 1g that I could figure out the size...( I'm goin through the same thing...I got a dejon tool pipe that I cnt put on until I get a catch can or tap it like your going to do)LOL
 
If I did run a catch can, I'd still route it back to the intake pipe from the can.

I don't have the stock intake anymore so I was hoping someone had done this already, or know which fittings to use.
 
Idk if 1g intake pipes are the same as 2g with those hoses....aren't they just regular vaccuum lines? Perhaps you could just take it to an auto parts store and they could help you out....

I would reccommend using a catch can if it's possible also
