Catch can questions
Ok so I've read up and understand perfectly how to install the catch can...
my thing is that Endyn apparently hasn't gotten the greatest review, but they are the only BAFFLED catch can WITH a breather I can find.
I would rather not tap into the valve cover to breath the crank case so are there any other options? Maybe just use the Moroso tank? Tap into a greddy catch can and weld a nipple with filter on end?

Re: Catch can questions (SOHC_MShue)
yea but if I do this dont I need lilke two catch cans then?? One for the back of the block to eliminate the PCV valve and box, and then one up front for the lines tapped into the valve cover?
Doing both would give the best ventilation no?

Re: Catch can questions (BoostedJeff)
endyn cans work great with mild hp. mine worked well last year, at 25 psi and 500hp +- now, with 34 psi and more power, i have a 1 1.3qt can and it isnt enough.
in this day and age, i think jeff is right do it once, with the t1 can, i am taking bids on my spare kidney to get mine he hee.
mounts where the batt is.

Re: Catch can questions (boostedcivicsir)
yea but I have my battery where the battery is supposed to go lol....what then? Keep in mind, my R will be making 500 pump -600+ on C16, full interior, AC and PS...I dont' wanna start putting batteries in the back of the car to be honest.
This thing is really bulky, and two endyn cans could fit easiliy in the front and back is my only thinking.
besides this can drains back into the pan, which isn't always oil, its also unburned gas and oily residue....hense why I'd rather have it draining into a plastic bottle or something, or just drain it once a week....
thoughts?

Re: Catch can questions (totsie7944)
My thoughts are that there are enough people on here that have already DEALT with the problems from using those style cans. Just move your battery, its not really that big of a deal, you don't have to move it to the back, just get creative.
I would rather spend the 250 for the T1 junx, then have to worry about oiling down the track, or it spewing out, getting on your tires and you hit the wall at 120+ going down the track. Trust me, I've watched this happen more than once. Think about the big picture instead of not wanting to move your battery, sometimes you have to make sacrifices in order for things to be correct.

you make a valid point sir, and have convinced me lol...plus it looks killer sexy in the engine bay. Question is where to relocated the battery. Never done it before. I'm doing all my own work, but I guess I might be paying you to tap my valve cover and move the battery to the trunk for me....could you give me an estimate on tapping valve cover and battery move? lol

In front of the front tire on either side seems to be the popular opinion.

If you need any help let me know. We have a setup that would be perfect. Good luck.
