Bought an RST oil breather - what diameter sized hose do I need to fit this ? It's a Spec-R one and the cars miles away with the breather so I can't measure.............I also need one of the little K&N filters for this set up too.............where can I get one of those ? Tried Google and can't find anywhere..............

Cheers chaps

OK, sounds really daft but I don't know the difference at the moment it's standard, what I want to do is fit the breather, one take off to the rocker cover, one to the sump, one to atmosphere hence the breather...............help at all ?

morto

yes mate thats why im asking you , i use the open loop on a grs oil seperater , all it means is that you make a catch tank then the crap oil doesent go bach into the system , works fantastic on mine and never hunts at all, this is what you do ..block the pipe that come out of the metering head then make a catch tank for the pipe that comes out of the oil seperater, normaly crap oil runs into the bottom of your metering head , if you see how much oil comes out of my catch tank you wouldent beleve it mate ..will put some pics up .. and this is thanks to karl from n.m.s who sent me a email were all the pipes should go the dff is amazing

Mr S1 we normally have the small k&n filters in stock
most people use rubber pipe for the breather, not sure if we have any in stock, if not we can get some (or silicone)
