NA oil catch can help

Post by scoobyadam »

I've noticed that I get oil in and around my intake a little bit and was reading online about people with NA 2.5s having good luck with oil catch cans and was wondering how exactly I would mount one to my car. I have been doing some research and think I understand exactly how it would mount but it would be nice to get some solid facts.

Here's the pcv system diagram.

You need to put the catch can on the outlet on the back of the engine. Route the line from the vent on the back of the engine, run it into the catch can, then tee the line out of the catch can into the PCV valve and the existing breather going to the intake.
