On my 7mgte, Im running two lines that come directly off my valve cover breather ports and lead directly to the ground for any excess oil that might be blown out. I have connected a line from the TB port to the accordion hose port where the original PCV system would hook up to. Is this ok to do? does it in any way effect my PCV system. I have read the various articles on this form but still do not know if this is ok to do.

any insight would be great thanks!

Yes, as you've completely disabled the system... Hook it back up as stock so it actually puts sucking on the crank case...

you should t the tb back into it like stock. no tb port = no vac at 95% of engine run time (anytime your not in boost).

put it back to stock

tb port and accordion hose into one port on the cc and the 2 valve covers into the other.
you want constant vacuum pulling the air from the valve covers threw the cc. if you tee the valve covers and tb port on the same line its not gunna go threw the cc and waste your time installing it.
