Got bored yesterday at work, started looking for something to make when I was bored, catch can sounded like a cool idea. Before we start Im gonna mention I have no idea how PCV systems work, I know there meant to vent the crankcase and thats it. So bare with me

I took a barely used air compressor oil filter, rinsed the insides of oil. Drilled 2 holes for 2 3/8" barbed fittings at the top of the filter placed bside eachother, and mounted a drain plug on the bottom with a brass fitting and an M12 bolt. I capped off the openning of the filter at the top with a small aluminum plate that fit over the holes perfectly. Everything was sealed and dealed nice and tight with jb weld and some hi temp gasket ****.

I did not make this thing to look pretty, ill paint it black and thats it, its a Honda not a show car. So now I have this




And I have no idea how I am supposed to run the vacuum lines and everything to this thing. Found a bazillion different answers but none answerred or stated this one little factor I need to work.

- MUST BE CANADIAN EMMISIONS LEGAL (to pass emis and cop checks)
- BE FUNCTIONAL

My motor is out of my car right now and as of right now all i have is the black box mounted to the back of the block with a line running to the little valve type thingy mounted on the intake mani and I guess the other part and last part of the stock PCV is the valve cover to my intake

This is a D16a6 motor, going medium (16psi) boost this coming season.

I need someone to tell me how this ******* **** is supposed to be run. I have no idea, I really dont care about all this maximum performance and all that jazz, I want it functional and I want it legal for when I get my car e-tested. Any other pics can be given if youd like, dont mock the 25 min catch can, shes a beauty.

Thanks

 

you need bigger lines

 

3/8" is plenty I would think

 

 

I'm not too familiar with the d-series engines, but usually there are 2 ports on the valve cover for ventilation.. So your catch can should have a total of 3 ports. Two of which would go to the valve cover vents and one which would go to the inlet side of your compressor on your turbo to suck the gases out.

 

Search for Pvc or catch can. There is a good write up and fully explained DIY. For most honda engines. Just search

 

yea, I even have detialed pictures of my catch can setup if you search.

I did not create the thread so don't search by my name.
