Where would I plump an oil catch can into in engine bay.To what pipes? It has one in and one out.Any help would be appreciated.....Vinz :bow:

more bling then vinz?!?

 

if you have a search on pcv removal, there was a lot of talk about it then - i think lymon put a link up from either twinturbo.net or the australian one.

 

sorry to be so vague, i know iv seen it somewhere though!

 

happy hunting

here u go : details on a single and dual catch can setup advise i got from Eric.

 

I'm using 2 small catchcans, both the size of a small beercan and both with 2 inlet ports.

 

I've connected the high ports to the L+R pcv valves and the low port of the can to the L+R ports that are on the intake rocker covers (under the plenum).

I plugged the holes that are left on the hardplastic intake pipes and the pipes that originally ran to the pcv valves (which come from the rear pipes that originate from the ports on the back of the right exhaust rocker cover.

Used to let the air come out of the oil, you can get cetrifugal ones that spin the oil to remove the air, but only seen them on racing cars and jet aircraft! not sure they really do a lot as the air will still come out in the sump, more for looks than purpose

It's a bling thing then....Thanks for that.

They're to remove oil vapour from the air, other way round. Stopping the oily vapours going back into the intake and coating your pipework/intercoolers etc and reducing their efficiency. At least thats what they do on other cars, not heard much mention on zeds before.
