Revxtreme Catch Can install question
after searching for the past couple hours, im having difficulty figuring out which hose goes where on my single valve catch can. I'm N/A with a c6 90mm throttle body and a FAST 90mm intake manifold. Does one go into my valley cover and the other to my manifold?
all this reading has me even more confused, any help would be greatly appreciated since the pictures from the instructions don't help.. need more detailed instruction, thanks

well that post has more info than he likely needs.
Does your revxtreme can have a single PCV valve mounted in the top of the can?
Thats what it sounded like by " single valve catch can"
If so connect the plastic hose from the driver side valve cover to the air intake hose (usually after the MAF & before the TB).
Connect the passenger valve cover hose at the front of the cover to the revxtreme connection without the PCV valve. If you have a valley connection you will use this instead.
Connect the can PCV to the existing PCV valve. leave the existing PCV valve in and connect that to the manifold behind the TB.
revxtreme recommended leaving the stock PCV valve in this system.
I have this setup and I just pulled mu manifold to verify the system efficiency. a tablespoon of oil in the manifold (probably from the old setup) ports and valves were very clean.
note if the can you have does not have a PCV valve in it everthing should be the same minus one PCV.
If you need pic's PM me and I will take some.

thanks for the help, it seems there's a hose that goes from the passenger valve cover to the manifold and on the driver side valve cover there's a hose that is left hanging... supposedly an old school method of relieving crankcase pressure, that that original owner installed
so I will be taking the driver and passenger side valve cover hoses, connecting them with a T-fitting and then hooking it to the can and the other connection goes to the manifold

after playing with it for a few hours, we've come to the conclusion that the valve in the catch can may have been installed backwards because once everything was hooked up as the instructions say, the motor would begin to make an unusual loud winding sound and could not remove the oil cap due to pressure, when I turned the motor off, the pressure was finally released and able to take the oil cap off .... I'll be sending an email this morning and see if i need to return it
