Default Installed DK Custom External Breather

I have read on the forums about the benefits of rerouting the crankcase breather to the outside of the air cleaner. I never got around to doing it on my old SG but I definitely wanted to do it on my 15 before I got any real miles on it. I thought I was going to have to go to the hardware store and piece together the things I needed to do this but ran across another forum member who mentioned buying a kit from DK. I went to their site and got one on its way. I got out in the garage today and installed it. I couldn't decide where to locate the filter so decided to keep it simple and place it behind the A/C cover to keep it hidden. Hopefully this location works out but there is plenty of hose in the kit to put it about anywhere you want.

Look at the gunk on your butterfly already. You'll be better off without all that going into your intake.

Its the premium discrete system. I'm running the Fuel Moto Pro Billet A/C which uses the stock cover.

Just a suggestion, I would turn those banjo fittings straight down or inward just a little bit and shorten those hoses just a bit. When summer time hits and those hides get a little heat on them they're gonna droop a little. The way you have it now that filter will be bouncing around on top of your cam chest. Could even rub through the powder coat.

2010 Limited with some stuff!!

Hey I was that guy ordering also Dk recommended that I order the complete brother system instead of Discreet kit. I also told them I would be using the fuel Moto pro billet with stock cover. Received mine but haven't installed yet. Hopefully I have the right kit. They both look similar but mine does not have a tee. Filter basically goes where t is at in your pic.

I ordered the Complete kit. The kit comes with enough hose to place the filter anywhere you want but I thought I would hide it behind the A/C cover and see how it works out. I don't know how fast that filter will fill up but I can get to it without removing the A/C.
