Before i go putting this in,
um i have no idea wat so ever

so any handy tips or nething ??

there is some little brackets that come with it but nothing that screws onto the can itself ??

is it a scavenging one? or just a condencer and fills the can one. it needs to scavenge like the manifold draws out the the blow by or your oil will age x2 quicker.

its the one from anthony

catch taht oil.

You blowing smoke or your pistions rings gone Meh?

:doubt:

nah just a big of wank factor to the engine bay to add to the rest of the shiney stuff that is goin in there soon

but yeh where do i put alll the hoses ??

ok heres a pic of my nice dirty engine bay, where bouts do i put the sucker ?

between the two heads is a hose that is on top of the rocker cover...

im geussing the catch can goes in between here ??

Yours is set up slightly different than on my VRX. Do you have a tube going from the a rocker cover to the intake plumbing at all anywhere.

If not then tap your oil catch can between the hose running from the left of the front rocker cover to inlet runner 6.

There is no point in putting it between the hose on the rear rocker cover and the spot just after the MAS.

Air actually flows INTO the engine thru this hose. It is the "FRESH" air hose in the PCV system.

Air/oil only goes out that hose IF BLOWBY EXCEEDS the capacity of the PCV valve on the left of the engine (the rubber grommetted dohicky) that goes to inlet runner 6.

speakin to anthony today on which place to put it
also just spoke to my mate whos a mechanic and found the best spot for it,

it will be mounted on my suspension pillar and then put in the pcv valve on the left of the engine

will have this done in the morning, hopefully the hoses that come wont be too big and they will fit nicely

:D

here is my install.


Anything wrong with it.

I don't understand the "FRESH" air hose comment.

The T-piece is uneccessarily heavy duty but I cannot get a part that is lighter and bertter in only 1 day.

Apologies to Meh for photochopping his engine. I don't have a digital camera

mine's one the passenger side....

Aaarg ... allpaw, your install is dangerous. The PCV valve prevents a "backfire" igniting the oil fumes in the crank case. You now have a direct line for a backfire to ignite the fumes in the catch can.

Any hoses attached to the intake "BEHIND" the throttle body and attached to a possible flammable item should have a one way valve in them.

The "fresh air" means that air actually flows into the crank case from behind the mas and the air filter. This means that a portion of the air supplied to the front left runner is actually supplied as follows: air filter --> mas --> fresh air hose --> rear bank --> crank -- front bank --> pc valve --> into the runner. It flows this way under vacuum in the intake, namely idle, cruise etc until blowby pressurises the crank faster than the PC valve can flow. So it is bypassing the throttle body, and thus blocking it may affect the idling (i.e the ICM has to work more).

Idealy I think the best option is to have two tanks. One for each side. Or plug the runner hose connection and run both the front and rear banks into the tank and then to the intake plug behind the mas, then you wouldn't even need a PC valve... the crank is just an old school "breather" with vacuum supplied via the intake..

Anyone else completely confused???

Dude, isn't it obvious? First you have to re-route primary power through the plasma intake manifold, making sure to first modulate it at the secondary transverse matrix inductor valve. Then you can syphon excess neutrinos off with a bi-vacuum oscilator. If you feed the neutrinos to the sub-moleculor refraction casing's pulse terminal at half the original velocity you'll create a worm hole that stops the nasty oil from getting back to your intake. Duh :nuts:

dont forget the quantum neutrino molecular distribution modulators!!!!

Thank god...some else who speaks my language :D

:bowrofl: :bowrofl: :bowrofl:

yeh i know wat yur speaking bout and thats y its hooked up the way it is

those catch cans are illegal.............

but so are BOV's.....and mine is the HKS loud mofa foka AHAHAHAHAA

Yes I have had a long think over night and realised that my install is wrong.:confused:


It would be best to not have any chance of backfire igniting the catch can but the PCV set up at the moment doesn't allow it. The PCV only stops the front bank from igniting if the flame "backfires" up the intake manifold. :rant:

So yes the best solution is to use the valve stem on teh back of the MAS (does it have a one way valve in it?). Then run two lines into the inlet on the back and the cross over on teh front. Then run from the cross over of the back and the oulet of the front and into the catch can inlet. Then run from teh catch can into the manifold inlet.

This is the best solution except that we need a one way valve to protect the catch can and that will need to be puchased seperate as the one on the car is in the wrong place.:cry:

Am waiting for engine to cool so that I can fix it. Does anybody else hear the tappets amplified by the catch can?

amplified tappets ?? cant say i do hear this

What does an oil catch do - I presume it catches oil - but form where?
