Hello Folks

I am very close to going to get my 1.9TD Vanagon registered. I need to attend to one more challange. I cannot find a breather for the 1.9td and I do not want to go to the dealer unless it is a last result.

1) Has anyone ever used any other style oil seperator?

2) Can I just vent this to the atmosphere or do I need to break my intake line to the turbo?

3) What might happen if I do just vent it to the atmosphere?

Thanks for the help

BTW I have been driving the Vanagon around the block and I must say this thing really flies compared to what I though it would be like. Shifting point is important. Must shift at a point where the rpm is still high enough in the next gear to keep the turbo from spooling down.
