From what I read from members far more knowledgable than I and other sources all cars can benefit from these. In my mind my car provides me so much fun and if there is anything I can do to make it run smoother or last longer I am doing it.

does that catch can need to be close the actual air intake or can I run hose so I can locate it somewhere accessible?
Installing now and need some guidance...

I did locate the correct hoses thanks to the folks who helped here THANKS

Locate it in the coolest spot. The length of hose doesn't matter. Try to have the hoses run downhill too.

Basically, from PCV (passenger side of engine or right side valve cover) to catch can to plenum (upper intake manifold). That simple.

It really makes a difference. Next time I remove the plenum, I'll take pictures of valves. Squeaky clean!

Hey thanks folks... I had to give up as I could not find a spot on the passenger side. So I will look tomorrow on the driver side for a suitable location.

Well folks I installed it. I got some metal brackets and did an OK install. I am going to get something custom made so that the install not only functions well but looks good. I will post when I get this done. Thanks everyone for your help... I was close to not doing it but got r done.



I think it will work well here.

If this helps any, I figured I'd share how and where my catch can is installed.

Since mine came with brackets and straps I decided to bolt a bracket to the passenger side fuse box and strap the catch can to it.

Needs to be low and cold for the best performance of it.

V6Noobie in that picture I see that you capped off the vacuum line on your injen intake. What did you do with the hose that hooked up there?
