Any. Put steel wool into bottom to give the oil vapour a surface to condensate on. I'd spend the money on good tubing and connectors/clamps.

Tried that before. The car crushed the bottle as it got too hot and the bottle became too soft

does ! ends up looking like a dirty bong in your engine bay tho lol.

Try a MTF container with steel wool inside - it has a handy side gauge to tell how much oil has been caught.

what you had it mounted on the headers or something. I've had it for 2years and it hasn't lost its shape.

there is cheap and expensive solution, up to you.

So your telling me I can't just add a catch can?

Seems quite simple too me!

Turbo inlet - catch can - rocker cover...

I don't have that type of time you seem to have...

If I ever find the time to go into forums of a make of car I don't even own anymore just too pick and prod others I'll let you know.......

ive got an idea Luke. How about you just try it and see if, under any circumstances , putting some sort or catch can on this inlet pipe actually "Catches" anything.No real harm in it.

in this case , no it cant hurt.
On a NA car it wont do anything , but in this "boosted" instance lets see.

Guys

The PCV valve is one way on my EG5.... and mines in good working order :)

Ive read Limbo line and now understand the basics
http://www.beesandgoats.com/boostfaq/g2icturbo.html#PCV

A small amount oil in the turbo intake is better than just installing breather so I'm put mine back to stock till I get a catch can.

Limbo who moded your Intake so this setup would work correctly?

i drilled 2 holes in the arm about 10cm apart (i didn't exactly measure, its a guestamate) then i put 2 rubber gromets in it. The right angle parts i used 2 small pieces of stainless steel pipe bent them carefully in a vice and intake done.

If anyone else wants to do them i'm sure you can use either brass or copper right angles from a pumbing supply, in case you don't have the stainless steel piping. Brass would prob be better out of the 2 as it doesn't corrode. Copper sometimes goes green if there is water & air present, but i think it this sealed application should be fine.

Hey Limbo what did you use for a fake PCV value?

huh? the stock PVC valve is still in place, this setup is only to reduce the pressure buildup to allow the PVC system to work like stock without the added pressure in the manifold

Hey Guys

I picked up my Moroso Dry Sump Breather Tanks No. 85470 of Adrian at TODA yesterday..
http://www.moroso.com/catalog/images/85473_part.jpg
http://www.moroso.com/catalog/catego...?catcode=13400

I’m using this method.
http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...t/diagram2.jpg
Block off the IM
Block off the Pre-turbo intake

Drill out the PCV valve so it flows both ways and also increases air flow.
Run one line from the PCV valve/black box to the oil catch can.
Run the other from the rocker cover to the oil catch can

I have a few questions…

1.What bolts or screws should I use to install the Catch Can bracket to the firewall?
2. Where can I get 3 x Male 3/8” to 1” hose nipple?
