Are these the two hose connections that I am supposed to route to my catch can? Just making sure. I took that hose off and scraped the inside of it with a q-tip and there wasn't any oil in there at all. Is this a pointless mod or am I saving my engine in the long run? Sorry pic is a blurry you have to scroll to the right to see my arrows.

If I'am not mistaken, the oil catch cans are actually for high boost cars. Hence the reason the MSP doesnt blow oil. Also there are a coulple of baffles that prevent oil from squirting out thru the vent tube. But it might happen. I ran 12psi on my P5 and never had oil out either.
 
yes, those are the hoses. Mine is not catching anything right now, but after the warranty runs out I might want to increase the boost to 10 psi and it might work then. In the mean time it does not hurt anything and it sure looks nice. You can also look at it as a $80 cosmetic upgrade. A lot of people spend even more than $80 on cosmetic upgrades.
 
It def does look nice but my big ugly coolant resevoir is in the way of it. I'm looking into getting a metal coolant tank. I want one with a tube so I can check the level of my coolant. I want pirana's one but he does not have them right now. Any ideas.
