Not done this one but I have had to 're route mine, I'm using the S3/LCR inlet so the breather is on the opposite side, you can pull the 90 degree piece lot of the servo and then connect it to any vac source really. It's just a case of routing the plastic lines

I did mine, got rid of some leaking hoses and fitted a catch can in the process, it has helped to catch alot of the waste that would otherwise be plumbed back into the engine.



Sorry the engine bay is a mess, I am still sorting out the wiring and the engine bay hasn't been cleaned in months!

I did this when installing a catch can, didn't notice any difference afterwards with servo assist.

Is an awesome engine bay that

It's very nice of you lot to think so, the engine bay has been neglected and the majority of the plumbing were only ever intended to be a temporary solution. All of which will soon be changed for a final solution to the standard pcv plumbing.
