sup all you can make your own oil catch can for only 20 dollars!!!! total!!!!!!!!

its smaller than all the other cans, and theres a filter that comes with the can! save space, and catch oil better!!!

the filter itself are the filters for... hum haha not sure, but its in the tools section in home depot! Huskey and Campbell Hausfeld make these filters. the campbell hausfeld filter # mp5138 its called Mini General Purpose filter!

Filter around 11 something

Hose connector like 1 - 2 bucks per 1 - you can get this at the pluming section, they have plastic and metal ones, the plastic ones are better i think b/c they have stright and curved, so it can better direct the hose

Hose like 3-5 bucks

Clip 2-4 bucks

so total its about 20 bucks! we need 2 oil catch cans. 1. from engine to intake (front right of the engine) 2. from engine to intake manifold (back left of engine)

I have the setup Mitsuorder from EvoM outlined. However, I never heard about the need for a second setup. If the back one vents to the intake manifold, it at least would not contaminate the intercooler like the front one. Hmmm.
