I recently changed my catch can set up to a vented(to atmosphere) set up from a recirculated setup(pre turbo). When I give her lots of throttle all I can smell in teh car is an oily gas smell which is coming from the vented can. Anyone else experience the same thing?? Normal??

Thanks

 

mine does that too, **** gives me a head ach and nauseated

 

What else should a catch can that "catches" oil and blowby vapors smell like? Colonel's extra crispy?

Ha that was a good one.(slaps knee repeatedly). I think I might go back to a recirculated style to avoid the stench.

Cheers.

 

I haven't got a tune yet so I've yet to go WOT but I wonder if I will have the same issue. Last setup the dumptube would expell a little exhuast and it would seep through the bottom of the car so more then likely the exhuast fumes will over power the catch can smell

 

more power=more smells

 

i put a car air freshner on top of my filter
