For the set-up above you basically need.....

1x 65-70mm 90° Silicone elbow.

3x 70mm Straight couplers

2x 70mm 90° stainless bends

0.5M 70mm Stainless tube.

All can be found on eBay.

When I bought the BMC the only thing I used that came with the kit was the actual carbon air box and the jubilee's.

These pics are just quick snaps on my iphone.

I know the bay needs detailed and will be done after xmas.

The plastic bottle thing is the carbon canister.

As for the crankcase breather, you can plumb it in to a t section of piping or a tap into the side of one the silicone pipes :)

To get the carbon canistor off, you lower your car, you try to park it but fail and mount bumper on the kerb, rip entire bumper off whilst reserving off. Then a couple of days later you'll find yourself driving over the canister.

then just join the two pipes together that would be in the canister
