Or i have to make a hole to put the breather on?
Need some help please?

That catch can does not need a breather. One nipple goes connected to your intake manifold nipple where the old pcv line ran into and the other nipple goes connected to the pcv valve.

I bought mine here in Aruba, but I saw one on extremepsi just like that
I tought one nipple goes to the pcv valve, and the other one to the other nipple on the valve cover...

If you connect it like this, make sure you get a check valve to go between the catch can and intake manifold, so you aren't pressurizing your catch can.

Here's a thread with a ton of info. Basically though, hook it up like that picture, and you'll be fine.
