Car was still warm. So glad that stuff doesn't get returned to coat the valves, etc.

Same places, dude. You need to cut the supplied pipe into half. Pull the rubber PCV pipe off where it goes into the intake (under the toyobaru crab which must be removed). Just use the grey plastic tube to attach the rubber PCV pipe to the Cusco pipe. Then connect the other pipe from can to the intake hookup you previously detached.

I removed the rubber PCV pipe completely and rigged an adaptor from the Cusco pipe to the PCV outlet.

I think you will catch minimal oil without putting stainless steel wool into the can as a baffle.

Just ordered the Radium catch can and also reinforced racing hose and Oetiker clamps. Plan to try and make a really clean looking install that will use the factory strut brace as the mounting location. Will use Redline fuel system cleaner on the next fill up (tomorrow) to help clean out the residue before I fab up the catch can system.

Got the can, went the route of building a bracket to mount over by the battery, worked great and very clean.

Mine did not come with the metal discs, it came with some confetti looking stainless material. Looking at their website, it's what they show in the pictures for the can now.

Oetiker clamps and reinforced hose are probably a bit overkill and a waste of money... These are PCV lines, not fuel lines.
