Can you just run te hose so it's pointing down onto the road with no filter??

Iv cut the the original breather pipe in half and attatched the breather filter on the end and cable tied to the right of the coil pack so it pokes out from the back of the engine cover

Mine is like this. Tie wrapped on to the coil pack cable. Theres no real weight on it and the cable is rly well clipped on to the plenum not far from the tie wrap so isn't putting any strain on it. Just stops it flopping around too much.

Does it have to have a filter on the end? Can it be an open pipe? Lol

Well, i have heard it mostly chucks out some oil (when thrashing i always get a slight smell of oil) , but it actually also sometimes sucks in ! Therefore " breather" .

So a filter is a good idea mate (costs a fiver , less)

It vents pressures, and yes it does require a filter on the end of it.

I just vent mine to the floor.

Should really get a catch tank!
