Cusco Catch Can Install
The Cusco Kit only came with one hose and that is all you need so long as you cap the hole in the intake pipe. The excess gas just gets expeld into the engine bay from the catch can. I am gonna get some colored earls hoses to dress it up a little better and have a return line soon.
Spoiled@21, you should have the catch can installed between the PCV valve and the intake manifold instead of the crankcase ventilation port. It serves no purpose connected to the crankcase ventilation port. Look at Slows2k's second picture for clarification. I wouldn't have noticed it if tenblade2001 hadn't said something.
I realise where the Catch Can SHOULD be connected, but with my setup I am getting some sludge coming down the breather pipe into the intake pipe of the SC. I bought the Catch Can to sit inline with the breather and catch this.
Yep I am on top of that. Oddly enough I double checked the pictures on the Cusco instructions and they have it connected to the crankcase breather. Thus so do I.
The Front breather is the fresh air inlet for the PCV system. The "JDM" way seems to mount the tank on the front breather, or remove the PCV valve and run 2 hoses from the Valve cover to the tank.
The 2 hoses to the tank is nothing more than a remote breather tank. There is no PCV anymore. ( This will also fail the visual emmisions inspections)
If you connect the tank between the PCV valve and intake manifold, the tank (as long as it's baffled) will function as a oil seperator.
For those with catch tanks on the front breather/PCV fresh air inlet, very little liquid oil is collected.

I was thinking about running a 2 hoses just like that one from the breather and one from the PCV with a Y connector into a single hose into the tank and then the return into the manifold where the PCV used to be connected. This way it does both and returns the gas to the manifold. note: there is no emissions tests at all where I live.
