Hello guys, so I’m looking into cleaning my engine bay and adding some goodies while I’m at it. I want to add a nice catch can setup with some braided lines running to it, so I’ll be adding some nice valve cover fittings. Issue is what is the pipe that is connected to top of the oem fittings do and how can I delete it? I know it connects to the turbo so I’m guessing it does something with oil? Hey guys hopefully you can understand what I mean, I also left a picture highlighting the pipes I meant. Thank you

So you can delete the BOV return pipe, but if you simply delete the breather pipe, you will have to make a proper effort to deal with the new crankcase breathing problem that you have created.

Luckily, there have been thousands of posts on this forum about this.  So search and read learn and then do.

Thank you guys for telling me exactly what they’re meant for. And gtsboy I will be doing just that, but with the fittings I’ll be buying only have one outlet opposed to the oem one with 2. Unless I can connect it somehow the bottom of the intake. I’ll see how I’ll reroute once I read and learn. Thank you guys much appreciated

Both the fittings from the cam cover to the catch can then a line from the catch can to the intake. So instead of teeing them at the cam cover fitting (factory setup) they are teed in the catch can

Bit hard to see in the photo but can kind of see it2017-05-16_02-51-25.jpg

Hey thank you Cal! I got some fittings similar to yours just have to wait for them to arrive ? but thank you for this made it so easy! Now as for the intake pipes think I could get some metal ones like that to fit on my stock turbo?

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
