Help with Elite Catch can install
I called them twice and left messages so customer service is non existant today at ELITE...lil dissapointed.
I have the can installed with fittings, no problem there, the destructions show grabbing an output off the "far" valve cover yet there is another on the other (closer)cover as well ( I ordered the nonZ can) also the "spiket" that is to get the hose is a lot larger than the hose provided unless I use the quick disconnect on the hard line I took off and scavenge it by destroying the hard line.
I would appreciate some advice from those that have done it already.
Thanks guys

Take off the u tube piece, top of can goes to the one you can't see in pic, side goes to top one , helps to take plenum off.

I see said the blind man...fwiw the elements (nipples) that I needed access to were definately obscurred (buried) . in actuality you end up removing only one of the factory "hard lines" it is the really short one. beyond that it took me much longer to paint the can and "nipples" cyber grey/ can w/ carbon flash/mount w/red nipples. I had to bail but I will post pics in am.
Glen E, thanks for reaching out and "smacking" me into rethinking the process.
