Catch Can
 
Alright, I got the setup right for the catch can after shitloads of threads and from what I understand it works like this... From the PCV valve to catch can to preturbo intake. What im wondering about is that you are supposed to drill out the inside of the PCV valve...to make it free flowing and so you can slip a vaccum line on it as well? Also you can cap the manifold nipple/outlet off or use it as a vaccum source, such as blow-off.

I would and tried but I couldnt get a hose on the inlet for it...is this all correct though if I were to drill the inside of it out?

it will work fine if you drill it out, just easyer to completly replace the hose

i dont understand you, if you dont touch the hose and connect it to a catch can you will still have a pcv vavle..just to let you know some people say keep the pcv valve and some say do not, im one that says do not keep it :) so do some research if your unsure

I read on hondatech from some guy that you dont need a catch can under 7 psi , just to replace the PCV valve every so oftencause they wear more on Boosted applications. anyone one else recommend that ?

Re: Catch Can
 
So for the people that have the turbo oil catch can setup leading to the pre turbo intake, did you keep the stock PCV valve functional, as in you did'nt bore it out like some say?

so you routed the other end to the preturbo intake? or did u just run it between the PCV valve and the manifold?

Re: Catch Can

BUMP,

Who runs their oil catch can from the pcv valve to the can to the atmosphere?

or is it better to run it to the preturbo intake
