Ok...so I'm trying to get to a leaky line and a stripped bolt, plus a few other things at the same time. Try to bear with me, I will probably describe something stupidly or make myself look like an idiot in some way shape or form. I had a hard time trying to take off the exhaust manifold, mainly because the bolts were either a)close to stripping/busting off b)Hard to get to or c)I am an idiot. The wastegate is getting in the way of one, and another is in a shitty angle. Is there a way that I just don't see to take them off, or does it just take a shit load of patience? On the red line going from my valve cover to my intake...I have read a bit about catch can plumbing and just popping a breather on there...anyone have any suggestions, I can't really decide either way, and figure you guys won't screw me over...hopefully. Here are a few pictures to help out a bit. I finally got a hose that fit to recirculate my bov, after begging a Napa guy to let me try out a few before paying for it. (Napa > F*ckin Autozone) Heres a few pics that I took, sorry I don't know how to resize...
Recirculated bov. How does this look, I know I need clamps, but didn't have any for now. Also best pic to look at for catch can vs. breather...

Where I am having a helluva time getting bolts out of...(behind the wastegate)

Anyway to clean this beast...I just get bitchy when I look at a dirty air filter...
And ss there a better route for coolant overflow...it just doesn't sit in there very nicely at all.

A little teaser pic for Red to "aim at the screen"

F*cking rust on my hatch...yes that is the crap left from duct tape I tried using to keep water out, which actually worked until it got hot and started to peel off.

Again, thanks, and I apologize for the huge pics. Anyone see anything that I am doing wrong, please feel free, I'd appreciate it. :tree: for everyone who bothered to look/help!
