7.3 idi turbo question
Ok I have the old style banks kit with the big intake box. My question is can i remove the whole box but leave the bottom hat thing that bolts to the intake that has the small hose on it. and just run a cold air intake off the turbo.also where could I put that round valve looking thing that's on the box.
The round thing with the hose on it that's bolted to the side of the intake box

Is it some kind of emissions thing is it even needed the hose comes off the front of the motor

The CDR valve is a small can shaped deal, about the size of a tuna can. You can either find a way to plumb it into your intake or just remove it and run the hose from the motor to some random location under the truck and let it vent to the atmosphere.
It keeps the engine from consuming a LOT of oil, and also helps to keep a runaway situation on ease, I would not get rid of it. You can relocate it though, a lot of people tap it directly into the oil fill hole
