Default big turbo in but?

hi all, i have put in a TDO6 25G turbo with 4" inlet in my 95 sti, it has been moved to bottom, front drivers side, so lots of welding, also reversed the inlet manifold, now its all going back in what happens to the breather pipes that went to the bent flexi induction pipe from the old turbo,

they went from the induction pipe to:

1, the valve under the old throttle body housing position
2, both heads, top breather pipes
3, the thing with A,B,C on, on the back right of the inlet manifold (sorry i dont know the proper name for it)

any help would be appreciated, cheers phil.

1) the valve under the throttle body can be blocked off
2) these should be plumbed to a oil catch can
3) if im right this is your idle control valve and you can either fit one of those mini breather filters to it but idealy it should be plumed into your intake between the airfilter and turbo

hope this helps

thanks very much, sorry to be a little stupid but the breathers from the heads going to the catch can, where does the other side of the catch can go?
ill try a little filter on the idle control valve as i wont be having an induction kit or the air flow meter on the turbo.
so what happens to the old breather that used to go in the valve underther throttle body, i think its the crank breather?
as soon as i sort these little problems its time for mapping.

The idle control valve has to be plumbed into the inlet for it to work

the two head breathers and crank breather go to the catch can then to a breather filter.

so long as the idle control valve has some sort of filter on it it will work but it is better to have it plumbed back into the intake as it will be goin thru a proper air filter then

ive had a look and decided to plumb the crank breather into 1 of the pipes on the can and the head breathers to the other 1, as i have only got 2 pipes you would think this is a problem BUT ill get another 20mm pipe tig welded on the top and put a mini filter on it, as for starting a project thread, yes ill sort one as soon as i upload a few pic, thanks for the help again CRonson7, phil.
