    I ordered a N* t/b kit from zzp. First thing i noticed was there was only one barb on the t/b itself for the fuel pressure regulator. In the picture on their site it shows a barb in the adapter plate too, to hook up pcv. Its not a big deal It didn't come with it but, How would I go about getting a barb like that and installing it?

    well in case anyone is in the same boat as I am and hates the idea of running a breather, there is a simple way to run 2 lines. I went to lowes and picked up a 1/8th" to 1/4" threaded barb, a 1/4" tap, and a drill bit. I drilled and threaded a hole into my genV adapter plate. Now i can run my fuel pressure regulator and have pcv function.

    Hold on a minute, does that just go through to the main inlet? If so, it's just another vac source and won't work for the inlet side of the PCV, which needs to come from between the MAF and TB plate.

    no thats for my fuel pressure regulator vacume source, its in the same spot as on my stock throttle body, right after the flipper plate. the pcv is going to the top barb on the N*. Its the same setup as shown here

    OK, I gotcha now, I thought you were asking about adding a barb for the PCV.
