saw this online and thought that it couldnt hurt, figured I didnt want oil getting pushed/ sucked into my intake and on through with the valve and such...no no, so I bought one. took about 15 min to install cause i had to mount it, but looks good I think, was 25$ for the whole setup including hoses and clamps shipped!!

 

What exactly does this do?

 

keeps oil/other containments from getting into the intake/and or motor.

 

I dont think is really that much of a big deal for engine life. If it was, all cars would come stock with one.

 

i always wonder what that thing was for anyway... now i know, and thats half the battle

 

Where did you pick it up? I've been researching them for a week or so and haven't come by that one yet, that I know of...

 

Very nice! It looks very quality, where did you get it from? I definitely want one.

 

I can concur that this does work. Doesn't get a lot of oil, but enough that you don't want it going into your intake.

OMG you have an ebay intake. HOW DARE YOU.

J/K great setup man.

 

GO JOE!!!!

 

you can get them for like 30 bucks or cheaper off ebay. i bought mine off there. and it works great. got mine mounted on the left of the supercharger.

 

Do the bolts that held the stock air box just hammer out?

 

i have the home depot version on my car.

i have had it for over 6 months and it was full of oil about 2 months ago when i cleaned it. so it does work...


BTW. if you put some steel wool in the catch can they tend to work a little better.

 

Wow, can someone post up pics of their 2.2 catch can after some time period of use. I'd love to see how much oil this thing is catching.

 

no, i had to grind them off


I got it off ebay for 10$ plus shipping and i was very impressed with the quality of it.

 

I'd say I had about an ounce a month on my.

Filling it up in 2 months seems like a lot of oil to me.

The home depot trick I did is about 20 dollars. Seemed to work great. Easy to clean out

 

nice, mine was 25shipped and fully assembled lol, all i had to do was tap holes for hanging it and put the hose on there

and the most you will see will be because of oil overfill, my buddy was doing that cause he thought he needed more then he did (mult oil changes) and when we went to change is intake mani it had some oil all up in it

 

I've been 'burning' more oil than usual lately. Maybe some of it is getting pulled into my intake? I might pick one of these up.

 

**** I'd buy that just because it looks cool.

 

yea i have one similar to the one from home depot that goes on lawn mowers...i got it off ebay for 8 bucks i thinks...about 8 months ago... people always ask me what it is cuz they never seen one so small...lol

 

a. sorry to hear
b. why do you keep showing to everybody

sorry, just too easy

 

lawl, tooooo true haha

that is too bad...you should really to find a fake one for that

 

looks good man...did ur mount on the ebay intake break yet? mine broke about 3 months ago lol

 

its not the size that matters its how u use it....lol

 

nope, had if for about 1.5yrs or more and its working fine, used it with 2 diff intake manis and 2 diff tb's

 

now i understand the function of this..........but how necessary is it?
