does anyone have any pictures of the location of their catch can in an EK or EM1? I have an 00 Si and cant seem to find any place to put it.

 

anyone? there has to be someone here with an Si that has a catch can.

 

talk to the forced induction guys.. thats the only reason to have a catchcan anyway is if your running turbo... other than that its just a show piece taking up space and dirt...

im having trouble taking off the hose on the PCV valve and the intake manifold, is there some trick to getting these off?

 

I took my washer fluid resvoir out an put it down there with my tranny cooler. If ya got a 99+ bumper that hole in it lets it cool down nice if ya aint got the foglights there.

 

buy an oddesy battery, move it to the rear, and put the can where the battery went.

 

if you look @ my engine on the right of the battery on the fire wall is where i put mine,but to do this you need to buy a small battery,lucky enuff i had a jdm type-r battery laying around to do it
,the battery plate needs to be cut if it gets in the way of the can .

p.s. im using the endyne catch can system too....

hope this works

 

sorry kinda bad picture but its mounted underneath the overflow resivoir for the radiator.

 

heres mine we made a braket out of aluminum and moved the wire harness so we did not haev to drill new holes


and a catch can does help if you road race (keep your car at high Rpm for extended periods of time) ...if you actually know how a catch can works you would know why this is reasonable ......for those who do not know try a search it has been coverd more times then I can count


oh and one more thing ...the catch can should be mounted higher then the PCV valve's location due to the fact that heat and vapor rise and if it is lower the can will not work to its full potential

 

thanks for the help. i got it mounted. I did notice it smells more than usual, is this normal?

 

is it just me, or do you guys also notice a loss in low end torque when installing a catch can? it seems like my intake pressure has dropped since i installed my can.
