For you guys out there wondering about where to hook up the pcv hose and
how to work around that air blocking bracket on the throttle body, I
thought I should mention that the K&N FIPK solves both of these
problems. It comes with its own pre-bent threaded rod to hold the
cleaner on and has a small neck on the base just for the pcv hose. It's
really pretty slick. I am VERY pleased with mine, as all the other
FIPKers are on the list. Too bad it cost so damn much though ... ;')
