Hello matey,
I just fitted one to my car. Got one of those pre-drilled brackets and bent it into a kinda 'U' shapr then mounted it against the suspension turret on the passenger side just beside the airfilter. Bolted it in and youre a winner. The difficulty came in the hosing. It was a right bu88er finding a piece that was a good fit to the head PCV outtake and the catchcan. I haev the saem one as you adn the ports on that are ever so slightly smaller than the one on the head. Anyway pieces were found. The return pipe was merely tied against the firewall at chassis level to expell any evilness so it didnt re-enter the engine. See if pics explain it better, even though it's a turbo, saem principle...
