So you're saying you didn't buy the intake pipe with the nipple on it?

Use a "crankcase vent" filter from your local auto parts store. Any brand is fine since it just feeds the low-volume air pump.

Also, note that most of the off-brand Ebay filters are not made of good quality. I recommend getting a good name brand filter like K&N, Apexi, etc.

Make sure you build a proper box to seal off the filter from engine bay heat, or else you're probably making your car slower.
