sorry still havent got back to you.
the plugs go in the intake tube. they replace the sound tube and pvc chamber.
the line coming from the valley cover goes to the middle inlet of the catch can. the outlet on the catch can goes to the line with a 1 way valve behind the throttle body. the 2rd outlet on the catch can goes to the intake tube with a 1 way valve.

If anyone wants a black set made up for them i can have made 2 or 3 with the delrin I have left. Ill have to find out a price. It my sisters boyfriend that made mine. Ill have to see what he want for them.

Hey JCunningham,

I have only 2 Exits on my can. I want to keep the sound tube if possible.

Do I have to remove the PVC Chamber?

to keep the sound tube you have to drill a hole in the intake tube and push the hose barb that comes with the can in it.
the pvc chamber only has to be messed with if you are are adding a clean side catch can.

Soleil · 08-18-2017, 12:21 PM

Hey JCunningham,
Please excuse my ignorance.

I finally installed the can.

As you can see I have only the single one. I connected the upper one with the one way valve to the exit of the can and the lower to the center of the can. I have also the clean side catch can. If I connect the clean side can with the pvc chamber I can keep the sound tube?

JCunningham · 08-18-2017, 12:35 PM

yes you only need to tap into the intake tube by the throttle body on the dual output cans

Elite Engineering · 08-18-2017, 01:15 PM

Cunnigham is a great asset!

#62197 from www.USplastics.com has a fitting that will fit right into the opening that he made the Delrin plugs/adapters for, or we can machine some fittings if needed.

Will still need to go down to 3/8" from there to the can outlet. or do -8 on the one outer fitting, but cheap good solution for the V8 guys, and the short L with single slot bracket will mount right to the one bolt under the TB on the engine for a clean install.

This shows the medium L with 32 slots, but short L with one slot looks the best.

Next you connect the 2nd exit port with 1 way valve to the air bridge (intake tube) as close the the throttle body as you can. I just happened to find a piece from a https://www.amazon.com/Campbell-Haus.../dp/B0000CBJ9O Its the filter on the bottom that holds the air chuck. The 3/8" vacuum nipple that come with the 6th gen Elite kit screws right into it and it fits perfectly in the spot that the sound tube was mounted. You can also buy a 1" plug and thread it for the vacuum nipple.

JCunningham,

Nice write up!

When I go to the Amazon link, it takes me only to the sander and I don't see the piece for the air chuck. Any hints on where to go?

Any better pictures of where the two valves not the one going to the intake end up

JCunningham · 12-02-2017, 11:23 PM

just took these. I couldn't find the part either. I had a friend make some plugs out of black Delrin. I gave Elite the blueprints to make them. Id call and ask for Steve

What size spring hose clamps did you use for the 3/8 inch inner diameter hose?

JCunningham · 12-03-2017, 08:55 AM

i took the hose into the part store and found what fit

Gotchya. Only reason i ask is i bought a 20 pack of 5/8. Didnt fit once they were plugged up. Kinda maxed out.

Then yesterday i bought 11/16 and 3/4 from a local store.

11/16 works, and the 3/4 works but the 3/4 is able to slide over the hose when its just the hose.

Mainly didnt know how tight they should fit. Figured id see what someone else was running on the e2-x setup

Thanks for the write up. It was a little confusing at first, especially if the reader is not intimately familiar with the set up to begin with. I have an E2-X, I think I have it figured out for the most part. The lower barb coming out of the crank case (drivers side) connects with the center catch can fitting. The upper barb connects with one of the outside connections on the catch can, with a check valve pointed away from the catch can. The third connection of the catch can goes in the opening in the air bridge left by the removed sound hose.

Question I have, is there a simple way to connect the hose to this opening. Elite Engineering suggested that they now include a fitting in one of their posts. I just received my E2-X kit, and I will have to check it when I get home.
