Default question for you guys with catch cans

my turbo intake pipe didn't come with a hole in it for the other end of the catch can. do you guys have the hose from the catch can going into the pipe before or after the maf sensor? would it really make a difference where it goes?

I'd just put a breather on the exit fitting and be done with it.
Better yet, a breather on the fitting on the valve cover:

usually you don't cap it off.

Crush is in the process of installing a turbokit so he capped it until the turbo goes in
