I am going to do this mod for sure, I have noticed alot of oil getting in the intake/TB. I have almost 200,000km on my engine, and this will definatly help.

mount it to the firewall. Thats where Im gonna mount mine. I never mounted it in the black tib, just kinda let it sit there. The tubes supported it so it sat up straight most of the time. My only concern was that it didnt get in the way of the butterfly valve on the throttle body. Make sure yours doesnt by zip tieing the tubs away from it or routing them elsewhere.

what did you use to mount it? drilled holes/screws? if you look at the catch can it doesn't look like it's easy to mount there are no screw tabs.

Here are the pics






I found that place to be a good spot for it because I didn't want to drill in the firewall and mount it with a U Clamp. If this setup doesnt work then that's what I'll do. For now all the hoses are in a good place. Ill see how it is in a month.

I'd go change your oil real quick.

That one tube is perty long, but that should be okay as long as the one going INTO the catchcan is short.

is it really necessary to route it back to the intake? as long as the thing is doing its job, i would leave that other hose off.

change my oil??


and yes, I don't have to route it back to the Intake but I just didn't want to plug the whole. I might tune it later on...but I just want to see how this runs.
