advantage of fitting a catch can

[Squar]

I had a custom variant of that can made by forge as i was the trial LCR they tried to fit it on
Have a look in my RR at the pics, it will be mounted off rear airbox bracket
As said aircon gassing point fouls this but i seriously reckon bracketry to support it 40mm lower could be easily made. I have even offered to do it just to prove it

Do you have any pics of the tank fitted??

 

[Ronin225]

Can is not actually fitted yet as i need to swap airbox for a cone first
Give me a few months and it should be on

pick a can any can http://shop.ebay.co.uk/i.html?_nkw=...tch+can&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1311 make sure you ask the seller for 15mm if its toyo you will get both 9mm and 15mm fittings

So catch cans are universal?

Yes as long as they have 19mm inlet and out lets, NOTHING smaller or you could have problems in the long term.

Toyosports is doing the job well for me........... good quality too

+1, same here, its empty, only fills up with oily smelling moisture, got 15mm id hoses sleeved into 19mm id hoses

my fittings are only bolted in, i may go and get some 19mm fittings to bolt into can...

i nearly bought one once, they cost nearly £150 including shipping from the usa. i missed out on a second hand one that went for £50

my new can is still in the making, i may spray it in black wrinkle paint so it looks oem

 

[aaronipswich]

Yer saw that price ouch
Although I like the look of it and looks subtle

Just brought one of these, asked the seller if he could make it with 19mm in/outlets and he can, cant argue for £28.50 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270775662964&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

 

[aaronipswich]

As I'm thinking of one like the square one your getting but with 19mm bent connections on it so I can sit it at the front of the bay with the connections pointing towards the fire wall

I've removed mine if they don't have 19mm inlets and out let's they cause damage to the engine so catch can is the the garage I now have a pipe coming out the rocker cover going strait to the floor

Hi There, did this affect your car? I can't find a 19mm catchcan (in the Uk) and my pcv & oil breathers are in a state, so need to sort.

Someone somewhere (HERE) stripped a hockey puck down (with a knife/saw) and found that the orifice inside is way smaller than 19mm, showing that you dont need 19mm in/outlets on your catch can

Thanks for posting that guys, would 15mm hose through out be ok then? as the pcv hockey has this smaller diameter.
