[QUOTE="Tex Arcana, post: 2176791, member: 15892"] Figured out: pretty much, based on alot of research and everyone's help here and at TALON. Cleaned up: hell no, because I had an autocross today, and I want to see if I can strongarm the dealer into cleaning up the mess--including the blower and intercooler. If I can't, I'll at least get a new PVC valve, fresh air tube and maybe snorkel as well. THen I can get togetehr with some of my other Lightning comrades, and pull it down and clean it. As far as the separators: One will go on the passenger side, before the tee, so it's filtering the flow to both the blower and the lower intake; the otehr will be on the driver side, flow direction TOWARD the snorkel, and perhaps with a check valve past that, to help prevent the backflow (tho, I am thinking that's not such a good idea, since all indications are that under boost, the PCV air flow actually reverses); also, I"m going to stuff steel wool into either the tubing just upstream from the valve cover ports, or directly into the baffle boxes in the valve covers themselves, to act as a pre-filter.
