Question Advice wanted No section for Intake/EFI/Carb?

Hello,
I am not sure but I don't see a specific section for intake/EFI/Carb/air cleaner. If there is please let me know or where this should go.
I have a bone stock 2010 SG that I want to do a stage 1 upgrade to using SE breather because I will be getting the HD warranty on my bike and it needs to be able to meet EPA guidelines not to void the warranty so I can't just vent to the ground.. I want to use an external breather setup with external catch can. What are some systems that others are using?
On my 99 sportster I used a 1340 backing plate, mounting bracket and a catch can setup with a horseshoe bracket to attach the breather/air cleaner to my Mikuni 42. Is there something like that for the TC 96"

Thanks in advance

Why do you need to meet EPA guidelines in Canada?

The warranty fromHD that I want to purchase has a section in it that states if the bike has been altered in such a way that it doesn't meet EPA the warranty is void.

You want the fifth item under the list in this Tech section, which covers everything you refer to - your bike doesn't have a carb. This General section is the first. You can compare your bike with the stock set-up using a parts website, also in the genuine factory service manual. If you plan on keeping your bike very long that is a 'must have'!
