whats a catch can for?

they catch oil to prevent it going back into intake pipe and manifold

oil from where?

rockers/heads

like from a breather?

exactly, it goes on where the original breather pipe from rocker to intake pipe is
not sure if it will be very practical on the 6a12 personally i just use a small breather pod filter instead

but it does look cool

good setup mate... where did you get the pod and metal pipe?

I reckon it does work, im already getting discolouration in the hose coming off the rear bank after i took it to an AHG tuning arvo

The pod was already on the car when i bought it, its just a HKS super power flow can get it from nengun, greenline etc. The pipe i got made at an exhaust shop cost me 120 and had to buy the silicone bend myself

i bought the most expensive catch can because the best is alwaysthe most expensive i got half a meter of 1/2 inch hose and a high quality airforce grade plastic kraft penut butter jar does the same as any othe catch can and its see thorugh tooo !!!!

Nice intake setup

Not a fan of catch cans on GPX's without aftermarket ECU control thou. The air coming form the manifold is metred air - ie measured by the MAS sensor in the plenum. Its expecting that air pressure to be there & when you plumb it else where, the ECU then has to compensate. You may find you're running rich now.

Oh, didnt know that. Not sure about fuel economy since installing it coz i havent filled up yet but my exhaust smells like fuel but that was like before, should really get the O2 sensor checked/replaced when im bothered.

Thinking of a tune later on when i get more mods on, noticed dstocks showed a nice power figure. Im planning the same mods except i want cams as well and probably head work while the motor is open before the tune.

sh*t man, all you fullas moding your toes gon make anymans factory original priceless...

how many years till they're classics????

TBH its a bit of a messy engine bay,
please dont take offence! custom engine cover and paint that CE lancer strut brace and hide that garden hose

better than mine though....

Why not put the hoses under the intake hose?

how bout get braided

could do its just when i was putting them together at the t-piece it was a bitch to get on coz the hoses were so tight so i just left them there and it was late when i installed it. Never thought about putting them under, might do it later when im bothered
