PVC hose placement help

[jaybong1]

the Previous owner capped off the sound tube and had a aftermarket cold air intake. I just put a Oem air box/intake back in And I’m trying to figure out if this pvc hose is suppose to be connected to the air intake since the sound tube is gone and if not where?

Your PCV is on the passenger side valve cover. The one you have circled is a vent tube that get recycled back into the motor from the intake.

That big line you have circled does go to the sound tube.
The one next it is for the driver valve cover vent.
Then there is a small one coming of the intake which you have.

The way yours is run is fine.

Ok thanks. I guess my intake isnt Oem because it doesn’t have 3 connections on the right side like yours. so I would have nowhere to put the vent tube if the sound tube wasn’t capped.

Looks like the yellow circled one in jpjr501's pic seems to be plugged on yours. See if you can pop the plug out? Your intake does look exactly like an OEM cast, but maybe modified by the previous owner? You could pic up a used replacement which is intact if you wanted to.

If it works, it works, there's not (much) magic about where in that part of the intake those plug into, as long as they plug into the intake and after the mass airflow meter (bottom right in your first pic), and as long as they don't leak too much air, you should be ok.

Exactly, you should have 3 port but I only see 2 on yours. Since you don't need the sound thing, you're all good.

I run catch cans on both my valve covers with vent to atmosphere so I don't have these anyways. I have a Procharger. But with my Motionworks vacuum block and rearranging some lines, this was fresh in my mind.

I have mine run the same way, but plan on testing with a Velocity Stack on my ESS. Can I run a breather filter while using the Velocty stack?
