Yeah, to me it looks like you need a new breather hose like the one I linked on eBay and the other hose to replace that corrugated one.

Other option would be to fit a catch can and ditch a lot of the PCV system, take a look here for a guide:

I would personally replace them all, I got mine from a company called Creation motor sport and I cannot fault them.
There service is exceptional and the parts are brilliant.

I also have an AUM and I managed to buy all the parts from them cheaper than any other named brand.

Here is a few pics of them.







And below is a link to everything you will need.  :cool:

It's the crankcase breather and pcv lower breathers that he needs, I've already linked to the crankcase one on eBay.

Personally I wouldn't bother with the boost hoses and tip.

The TIP isn't the best from what I've seen, looks very restrictive

I don't know if it's just me being stupid but that PVC lower is that the correct pipe because it has a split off to 2 sections where as I was told to get the same part number but bg at the end this one has ak at the end is this still fine?

I must admit it was a complete bugger to fit but I have noticed a difference with it. Alot less restrictive than oem bit ovi a forge one would be better.
