PCV question for those who put together an EJ20G

Post by mike-tracy »

So I'm just about finished with my EJ20G block, here's the details:

EJ20g longblock (legacy block and 96 wrx heads)
EJ25D intake manifold
TD04 with 90* silicone intake with FXT intercooler, silicone hoses all around


Everything's finished except for the pesky PCV system.
I've referenced this picture several times, but as you can see the 20g & ej22t don't share the same routing, ie. the 20g has only one pcv port per head, and no block breather (#13 on the pic)

I won't be running 10, 11, 14, 15 (due to no port #13 as mentioned above), just 8, 9 and 12 between the heads and the intake.

So the big question: Will the F-Pipe (#1) fit behind the td04 turbo with the 90*? I grabbed an N/A one, but there is literally no room for the tubing behind the turbo. I'll be using the stock #16 with the coffee mug mod. Any other advice? I'd prefer to run as close to stock PCV as possible for simplicity's sake. So no catch cans for now.

I don't have a complete setup for either an ej22t or ej20g, just the big bits, and that has made everything a little more interesting.

Thanks,
Mike

The 'F' pipe will not fit with a 90 degree turbo. Most use hose to make up the difference.

I was lucky enough to be able to use a full EJ20G setup.

Thanks Jess, I was able to use the n/a plastic piece with custom hoses.
