This supposed to be doing something?

I had to unplug it to fit the induction kit tube...

that my friend should connect to the underside of the air filter (is it a k&n?)
also on the right hand side you will have another hose that needs a small breather filter to stop subsequent leakage of oil.

I used the T connecter to connect the engines air feed and the oil air feed to the induction kit, the tube on the left is also connected to the induction kit...

Will this be alright?

aslong as all feeds are connected up you wont have a problem, when i fitted mine i didn't have a clue where to put the existing pipes so just guessed but seems ok whatever i decided!
my oil one isn't attached to the induction kit though, its got its seperate breather filter so stops the tiny amount of oil seeping out.

if the oil breather vents to air then it should be an MOT failure i believe. the oil breather is there so that vabours from the sump are surculated around the engine and out the exhaust. thats y there is a bit of a fuss when it comes to the g40 boost return pipe removal. the oil breather is connected into and if u remove it u need a catch tank to collect the oil vapours!

just my 2p! no one will probably notice the oil breather on an MOT n e way! :roll:
