Pcv Question

I was wondering does it matter where the pcv is hooked up too? Im trying to figure out my pcv setup and i was think of teeing into the hose that goes from the rear to front valve.

So the setup would be bridge hose>pcv> manifold.

I have a 00vi with 4th gen rear valve cover.

pcv just needs to come from the valve cover to vacuum...however you want to run it...thats up to you...i dont see how you route it would effect anything negatively.

thats what i run currently you'd be amazed at how much oil will accumulate in after a week, not to mention it will further stop the buildup of crap in your intake

I have my Front Valve cover venting to air, and the rear setup as follows:
PCV Valve --(hose)----Catch Can----(hose)-----Intake manifold

Definetly worth the $40 or so bucks
