Engine Drivetrain 2nd Gen S Most liked posts in thread: Oil Catch Cans let me know what you think?

I'm not concerned about the quality of the product, looks good. It's more the logistics of how to mount them both inside engine bay area

 

Following this with some interest. I have the BSH with the plug and there is a running debate as to whether there is an issue plugging up the passenger side intake.

 

What separates this can from the others available ?

And IMO the brass fittings do not "add a modern look", in reality it adds a bit of "my home project" look to it.

 

There is a two chamber design inside the Catch can that helps Catch the Oil vapors.

As for the brass fittings, the problem is there are not many fittings that can with stand the amount of engine heat that comes from the engine bay or the the break down of the material due to the oil being consistently being in contact with it.

There are some nickel plated and chrome plated brass fittings out there but they tend to get pricey real quick...

 

Our valve covers are plastic. Filter boxes, ect. I doubt heat will be an issue for any part in that area.

 

The Can is unscrewed from the bottom.

This is also something that is concerning us .We are looking to fab up a billet bracket.

Thanks for that. We really do take pride in how our
product looks as well as how well it works

We have also been looking into that,The techs and mechanics we have spoke to do not agree with blocking it off. Thats why we are looking into
a dual catch Can set up.

 

Different type of materials bud. We have already tried different fittings "Plastic/composite on the other platforms we make these for and they have failed miserably

 

Have you guys tested this catch can on an R53?

 

Happen to have a cut away to see how this top and bottom baffling works? And maybe a vid of how you empty it from the bottom? Thx.

 

Looks like you just grab the knurled section on the bottom and unscrew it.

 

Good vid, thx

 

very nice.
