Default Cosworth breather

Hi guys, I have a GGR 2 port breather and also a catch tank fitted. the pipe from the catch tank to atmosphere was piped into my air filter trumpet and a was advised to vent this straight to atmosphere through a small filter. The problem is that I get awful fumes in the car. Any ideas how to sort this please?

Cheers Jason

Should the kidney box still be in place as mine has been removed ?

GGR kit does not use kidney box.

What kind of filters do you guys use on breather systems?
I have now 2x -12 hoses without filters.

I've no filters on mine. You should only have one that goes to atmosphere anyway? Are you sure you've connected everything up correctly?

I have GGR 3-port breather, but I'm not using it like it's planned.
I use the catch tank as a hot side breather.
