Why hell yeah, a can is a can man. Just make sure you made a way to drain out the blow-by easily.

lol
yea my friend in class was telling me just to make one that looked good
'cause it would doin the same job as a more expensive one.
so, i think i might just do that....but make it look good and go with a nice color scheme...=0)

GREAT...........when I bought my car a few years ago, it came w/ the K&N breather kit on it. I didn't think twice about it. So basically if I keep the filters clean I'll be alright, I'll just have a messy engine bay? Atleast until I get a catch can.

I couldn't imagine running air filters on the valve covers. I take the oil filler cap off mine and I can see the blow-by comming out! Looks like a fine white mist.

yea that's what i saw pouring out of the valve cover nipples where the whole connecting piece was missing...
i was like ....is that normal?
lol

i thought that was condensation of cold outside air hitting the hot air from the engine.

That's def blow-by you all are looking at . Get those catch cans installed and keep that shit outa the ic and intake!

 

[the t3d]

yea i'm definitely gonna have that done...
i don't know why they would have that piping on there stock?
it's not exactly healthy for the intake and shit

 

[Boost Lee]

This. Is. Mine.

No, I don't have oil caked in my intake.

cant be too unhealthy though, considering mine is still running fine stock. but thats NOT gonna stop me from putting a catch can on it

jeff, whats up with the hood being white?

 

[Boost Lee]

Hood came from some car in Euuuuuurope. It was white (obviously). Previous owner felt the need to just paint the outer part of the hood.

Yeah, it's teh suxxors, but my car is getting painted soon so I'm not too worried about it.

:EDIT: Oh, YES, don't worry, the outside of the hood is blue, LOL.

I would NEVER drive around with a white hood. :eek3:

whew, crisis averted!

 

[the t3d]

lol that's a good question...
look at you showing off your turbo supra...=0P

[Boost Lee]

Showing off? NOOOOOO. Turbo Supra's suck.

I'd much rather have N/A.

Much more reliable, anyways....

 

[the t3d]
