Default D1SC F-Body Kit Question.........

I have a breather in the oil filler tube, A kytp catch can with a breather on top of it and the line going to the hat from the front port.

I figured just incase it wasnt pulling in enough fresh air from the filler cap it would take care of it from the hat. The two back ports go to the kytp breather can to catch the oil and the harmeful gasses/condensation can escape through the breather on the can. Just got rid of the factory pcv system.

Yea you could probably get by without it, but whats the point? Why not just run the hose and call it good and not worry about it? Is there a reason your considering it?

Took that crap off a long time ago. I'd rather not have the impeller suck up oil.

I dont let the blower head unit suck vacume on my engine either. But you do need the crank case vented so watch just capping of the rocker cover. Are you still using the stock pcv system?

Have a read through this thread. You might want to make some changes to the pcv depending on your boost level and how tight your ring gaps are.
