Valve cover vent?

I just put in my SC and did the CAI.
What do I do with the vent line off of the valve cover?
Do I run it before the SC or after?
or do I just leave it to ambient preassure under the hood?

most people just leave it hosed off in the engine compartment or put a breather filter on a shorter hose to look purdy.

I got the FMU in and ground out some of the SC plate where the wire goes thru that was pinched. I rev it up in park just to see and at higher RPM's it bogs down and tries to die...it did once. Almost as if it runs out of gas. But without gauges I can't be to sure. The guages don't get here til Mon the 24th.
Owe Valve body mod got here today. I will be putting it in on Mon or Tues.

I will have to be doing alot of tuning still.

if you are saying when it comes down off the revs it near or actually stalls, you need to raise the idle to about 800-900rpm.
