Oil catch can installed

Petr4271 · 02-12-2023, 03:43 PM

Anyone else running this ? Any result ?

Yessir, I installed on from Burger Motorsports, defintely helps with getting some of the muck that blows by, I used some customized the hoses for a neater look, very simple to do, just remember to leave space if you want to mount a certain air intake in that location thats the only open area in the engine bay that you can put it, I'll take a pic of my and post it when I get home

My MST intake lives there, any other real estate this can go?

ezaircon4jc · 03-22-2023, 10:56 PM

Next question... Where did you obtain the hoses and what sizes are they?

TIA

You can put it anywhere you want, as long as you get the hoses to where you want to go, you might be able to drill through the shield that is before the filter on your MST intake and pass the hoses through that and mount the can closer to the are left of mine, I'm not sure how much free space you have in there

I used 3/4" for the larger hose that's just a regular coolant hose you can buy from anywhere, connected with a brass male x male hose barb and cut down another coolant hose I found on ebay.... that is the tough one cause of the bend, you dont want too have a heavy kink on that... I've seen people use longer one and loop it around, but that looks horrible, the smaller one from the valve cover is hose from a pack of hoses I found on Amazon, it was a kit from an X5 that worked perfect, not sure of the size, but that can size pretty good and I just used the stock connection form the old linejust cut the ribbed plastic piece off on re-use the connection that goes into the VC.. you'll have to trim down your engine cover if you use it, very simple with a Dremel.

This is the desription from Amazon to the hoses from the X5

This is where I installed mine.

I’ve always considered doing this but I’ve debated it because both of my N55 powered cars now have over 100k miles on it. Despite the mileage, is it still worth doing?

I say yes, can't hurt.. get your engine nut blasted first to clean out what's in there.
