Where to stick it? (crank breather hose)

[prodsm]

I was going to use a fuel filter as a catch can, but my new hard intake pipe does not have the nipple for the valve cover breather hose. When i insert the fuel filter into the line where should the other end go? Facing the ground or re circulate it back into another line??

Thanks

Facing the ground is fine if u dont mind some oil drippin on ur tranny.

To the ground or to your original intake port. If you're not taking it into the intake, the filter's kinda pointless.

Is there no other line i can tie it into just so i can keep it in the system??

Well, it can only go upstream of the turbo intake. Otherwise, you pressurize it, and you don't want that.

You could just stick one of those little breather k&n look-a-like thingies on the end of the valve cover fitting. But oil will drip slightly outta it. I'd say just keep the fuel filter on it and route a hose under the car so it drips out down there, kinda like your coolant overflow hose how it just runs down to the bottom of the car.
