   Alright, below is an image of my engine bay as standard
   
   
   
   
   I wasn't quite sure what to do with the circled pipe so I left it hanging there and attached everything else and this is how it looked, you can see the pipe hanging there.
   
   
   
   
   
   I was then told that the hanging pipe is a vaccum and I needed that connected to the air filter and I was told to put an oil breather on the pipe I had previously connected to the air filter and this is how it currently looks...
   
   
   
   
   
   Is this correct? I think it is but im no mechanic lol, thanks

    yer pretty much, when the car is moving at a good pace under bonnet temps do drop quite abit, but a cold airfeed will always be beneficial
