    I'm only using one overflow tank coming off the degas tank in the engine bay. I capped off the overflow nipple on the radiator. The small hose right under the degas tank cap (I think the one you're referring to on the right) is the one that goes to the overflow tank.

    Where does your radiator cap vent go?

    The nipple directly below the radiator cap is capped off, as I mentioned. There is also a coolant nipple on the top corner of the radiator that I also capped off.

    Edit: My understanding of Wayne's mod is that it shifts the coolant connection on the degas tank from the top corner of the radiator to the top of the coolant cross-over pipe on the engine. I know some are running this configuration so that's what I'm planning to do. Here's some info from the 02 wrx FSM:
