If you have a catch can (or are building one) you would connect the hose coming off the pcv valve to the catch can. The other side of the catch can would run directly to the intake. Basically it just installs inline on the pcv hose.

Wait a sec, I thought it was the hose comming off of the valve cover?

the great debate. some suggest pcv, some suggest the other coming off the valve cover going into the intake before the t/b. nobody has displayed or documented results from the pcv system. and most turbo'd hyundais put a breather filter on the one off the valve cover as switching to a tibby t/b eliminates the intake side nipple. this does however, cause the filter to become extremely saturated.
sorry for the lack of answer, just fyi.

Your pcv valve is expelling during low and high loads. The "intake" side of the system blows under high load. I was under the impression the intake side never blew... The filter does eventually become saturated. In my opinion it would be best to put it on the pcv side (as i've left mine open and the engine gets covered in gunk). Leave a breather filter on the intake side and clean it once in a blue moon.....

I just did changed it to the PCV side, and works great!!! and thinking about it, i believe is better to have it from the intake to the catch can and to the PCV, what it will do is pick up the oil coming from the cover... thanks guys...
what would be the best thing to use to make a home made catch can? because where i am now i cant get anything similar to those ones...
Thanks
on second thought i might get one of ebay they arent too bad prices for kits
