Re: HELP FOR THE ROOKIE
forgot to mention it's very simply. The tough part is finding a place to put the friggin thing, I took it to a shop nearby and they made one for me and done.
there's positive pressure built up inside the engine from the spinning parts and increased heat, yadda-yadda-yadda. All engines have a breather and PCV valve at the top of the cylinder head cover to relieve this pressure. The system recycles the oil back into the system to be burned in the cylinder head.
However, in a High-revving engine , the stock ventilation system cant handle the pressure so tuners install a catch can instead of recycling the oil back into the engine.
Plus it looks hella nice under the hood
Re: HELP FOR THE ROOKIE
main reason I got mine lol, after 1 1/2 years, no oil in it, guess thats a good sign or a very bad one
Re: HELP FOR THE ROOKIE
My understanding on this is that catch cans are for direct injection turbo motors. Regular 3's intake valves get washed by the fuel/air mix(unlike direct inj.) so don't acumulate the same gunk on the valves. Don't waste your money.
Re: HELP FOR THE ROOKIE
They will still keep the intake track clean on a regular 3, the Speeds just get really bad with carbon.
