Default ERST breather system.

As standard, ERST breather sys plugs into the airbox like on Cossies (and most other cars) right?

Anyone got a diagram of the std ERST breather setup, and what changes when using an uprated setup?

Cheeeers

Standard:

Pipe between block and top right of cam cover.
Top Left Cam Cover port into little plastic thing, then goes via big plastic pipe to meterhead. + vacuum tube to inlet

Uprated:

Block goes to bottom port on breather pot.
2 cam cover ports to the breather
And the remaining port on breather (as there is 3) goes to the meterhead.

Block the meterhead off. And the port on the breather that did go to it, whack a breather filter on it (Or to a catch tank)

The port in the tank is extended up inside to the top so this can not happen>
