I am doin the intake manifold swap and it says you need a breather filter. Where can I buy one?
autozone.
New sig in the works
one question though. why do you need a breather filter for a intake manifold?
New sig in the works
just has it in the write up...says
Attach the breather filter to the hose you removed from the back of the bong earlier and place it between the manifold runners, or on the left hand side of the manifold, or anywhere else you might like to place it.
Also there is no autozone in this city..where else could I get one?
pepboys, advanced, NAPA, checker, etc.............
I'll have a sig someday....................
um... i'd just run your vacum lines how they are supposed to be ran.
I was a retard, and now I'm permanently banned.
why does it say to run it that way in the write up for the 2.3 L swap then?

Well, in the case of the breather port you don't have to.
Ok what's gonna happen...
When you take off the stock mani, you'll see two ports poking up coming off the block or whatever down in front.
Facing the car, the on on the left is the oil feed line. The other is the breather return line that plugs into the intake.
For stock it goes into the black baffle box.
For after market 2.4L intakes they provide a hose ot reach the nipple on the piping.
In the case of the HO mani, the nipple is on the back side of the manifold.
For me, I couldn't get my hands/ the hose around to reach the back side of the mani. So like most people, I just used a hose, stuck thebreather on the end and kept going.
Until my filter crapped out now i have just a hose kicking out the air/fumes.
So basically, you don't NEED a filter.
But you do wanna kinda have a hose on there to direct the fume to wherever.
Or if you want, make the hose long enough to fit on the HO manifold in the back like it was intended.

Ok so I went everywhere in town and no one has it. So who on this site can I order one from? Karo? Jason?
Here, try this. Do a search (www.froogle.com perhaps?) for a Breather filter, I bought mine from APC, but you could do anyone. Located in Ontario, or Canada, however specific you want to be. Then order from them.
Or, go down to a car audio shop (not the kind that JUST sells audio, but the kind that sells intakes and clear corners and stuff) and ask if you can get them to order the part from one of their dealers. A lot of Audio Stores will carry APC.
Yea, i wrote that writeup. Basicly you are putting on the breather filter b/c its the easiest way to deal with the hose. At some point in time i will connect it to the manifold some way, or even hook it up to the intake track agian.
