On rocker cover breathers there are two outlets each side.
Block the bigger ones off and the outlet where they lead to, and route the two smaller ones into the catch tank.
Under the intercooler, by the turbo there is the crank case breather. This has a t-piece, one end goes into the intake pipe and the other end into the throttle body. When the car is on boost it vents to the intake pipe and when off boost it vents to the throttle body. Take the t-piece out and block the hole in intake pipe and also the throttle body. Take a hose from the crank case breather to the catch can.
That's all 3 inlets sorted for the catch can and you can do what ever you want with the outlet.
Hope that makes sense.

I saw in some 'how to guides' that people were removing that valve and replacing it with a blanking plug. When I fitted my catch tank I just cut the hose attached to that valve and blanked the end off. Seemed easier than trying to get that valve out as its in a pig of a position.

Has anyone installed one of mad hammers catch cans yet I'm looking to do this at the weekend
But need the hoses
Believe they are 10mm and 15mm
With regards to the avcs can I just plug 1 off each side and route the remaining two
Also mad hammers catch can has 3 inlets and a main breather ?
