By the looks of it in your engine bay pic you're already just venting to atmosphere. You thinking of going via catch can then back into inlet?

i actually have it vented into the air intake pre turbo... i have the catch can installed as well... jus not connected. I like the idea of a little oil getting into the turbine of the turbo to lubricate it slightly but it not a fan of it filling the inter cooler with gunky oil. so i wanted to know what do you guys recommend

Did my ns inner cv again, still couldn't get the shaft out the diff so had to do it in place again and I also pulled the outter apart again so had to work some magic to reuse the boot clip, also found my lower ball joint is shot and its Sat so nowhere open and not in stock fml ! Hopefully get new lowers and uppers maybe upper arm bushes too, and do it in the week after work ready for Friday.
How hard are the upper bushes is it a case of pull em out tap em in ? Or is it a ball ache as Milner says you gotta reuse shells or something ?
Cheers

Started stripping down the spare tub I bought last week, ready to paint, only to find a lovely bum load of rot on the arch.....

So decided to weld up a new panel, I'm suprised at the results so far! Just need to weld on a strip to attatch the plastic wheel arch inner trim bit, seal the welds and a bit of filler to smooth it out
