i'll be getting this once I see the DIY guide..

Nice! We'll be getting these up on our site very soon!

[Riss Racing]

I have been getting quite a few PMs on what an oil catc can is for. Hopefully we can help educate the community on the reason for an oil catch can anybody that would like to chime in feedback is appreciated!

Oil Catch Can takes the oil and moisture in the blow-by gas that causes carbon and sludge build-up in the intake system, intercooler piping, and the engine.

yay no need to wait almost a year for it... its in stock! might be picking one up soon

That will never happen again. We stock all products and have full production when we release them from now on. We have a few more products done just waiting on having them in stock. Thanks!

Where does this go? In the engine bay? Does it replace anything or is it a add-on to the engine?

Sorry, I'm one of those guys that don't know what it is.

I will have a full DIY put togeather for you guys ASAP. That will have pics of install etc...will be a lot easier to answer that question in full detail.

PS dont be sorry thats what this fourm is all about education!

i'd like to see some pic's aswell to see where this thing sits on the engine bay.

Oil Catch Can takes the oil and moisture in the blow-by gas that causes carbon and sludge build-up in the intake system, intercooler piping, and the engine.

To elaborate, theres no such thing as a perfectly sealed cylinder, during combustion gas will always slip past the rings into the crankcase. (the bottom of the engine) if this pressure just built up obviously the engine effeciency would be reduced and bad things would happen as seals started getting pushed against.

To relieve this pressure a PCV is put in which stands for positive crankcase ventilation. On NA cars, that have constant vacuum in their manifold, the valvehead (the top of the engine, which is connected through passageways to the crankcase, the bottom) is connected to the manifold, the vacuum draws out the blow by which is then combusted in the cylinders.

But keep in mind the crankcase is very hot, lots of evaporated oil in there, this is also drawn out with the blow by. In NA cars it's not good (why burn oil when you don't have to) but it's not horribly bad either. In a turbo car though where vacuum is not always present in the manifold it is a regular practice to route the PCV to the intake pre turbo where vacuum is present (or at least not pressure).

Problem with this is all that oil vapor is now running past the turbo, and then into the intercooler where it condenses, and coats it, reducing its efficiency. It also coats the rest of the charge pipe and pools. Not to mention that having oil go in with the intake air during WOT is not exactly a power adder.

A catch can is a generic method for removing the oil from the PCV by giving it a different place to condense and be stored besides your intake track.

It can sit wherever you want provided you have enough tubing to reach the location.

The location of the PCV is in this post, it's the black tube from the engine cover going into the turbo intake pancake. There's also a lot more info in that thread.

Catch can looks good.

On a random side note... I was just at San Manuel's training center like two weeks ago. Nothing to do with that kind of training though, lol.

I was just on travel in beautiful (LOL) San Bernardino for work. I live in San Diego. I guess you could say I work within the Indian community.
