Hello all once more!
I am going to be putting some pipercross air filters on my car, what do I do with the pipe that used to go into the bottom of the airbox? (I think it was used to burn up any vented oil gas?)
Thanks

The block breather to airbox pipe ?
I ran mine up the bulkhead to a mini K+N originally.
After rebuild I will be having a breather system installed that has a catch tank.
Pipes will go from block breather and oil filler cap - into a tank - then return to sump.

Just had a closer look and it goes form the oil filler cap to a t piece, which then goes to the Gp1 airbox and also to the block. Then end I want to know about is the airbox bit.
Thanks

With airbox removed simply allow pipe to vent to atmosphere via a small k+n type breather filter.
If you use loads of revs expect this pipe to blow oil out (hence the need to make a catch tank)

Mount it high in engine bay to stop oil syphoning up the tube !
