    cossy sump breather- to where?

    I have now fitted my yb engine and was wondering what I should connect the metal breather to (located on left hand side of engine)
    I guess it would have originally gone to the airbox, BUT as I wont have an airbox where should I connect it to?
    I will have just a cone style air filter then into turbo,
    Am open to suggestions thanks

    I suspect you have a oil catch can? That's where I'd run it to - especially with a turbo which will suffer with increased crankcase compression so case breathing is vital to avoid oil leaks.

    You really need a oil catch tank on a cossy the oringnal system not that good , as said help to relives the crank case pressure
