And to clarify....no where am I or did I "Bash" Moroso.....the products are top notch for the most part, and some are second to none. But you cant get past the pull through oil test. You can make a clear beer can and see oil trapped......ANY container with crankcase gasses routed through it will catch oil. The point of all this (that you seem to continue to ignore) is the can allows oil to pass through into the intake air charge. It cost $8-12 plus 5 minutes.....no special anything else to test ANY can for oil pull through....so, why would you be afraid to do this simple test and see for yourself what we and others have already done? And then do the modification I describe and try again to see the inprovement.
Again, no slam......I dont think you can find anyone that has done more research, and more testing on this subject than we have....no where. I also have offered, free, no obligation, to show you how to improve the product and make it function better (hardley the actions of someone "bashing our company" as you clearly have not read my posts) but you choose to ignore this and that is your right. What I do is for the benefit of all members, and again, if you would actually read my posts I endorse a bunch of direct competitors that have products that work very well. Why not take the 5 minutes to install a clear glass inline filter and see for yourself? Or have you and this is the response? The solution to make the can more effective is simple, and will result in a lower cost to produce. |

Call them, unless you dont talk to them after your build.....they are a very respected shop and we were impressed with their work. That would be the best way to get a straight answer, wouldn't it? Un-biased is usually the best info.

I speak with SPI folks on a regular basis, but not about catch cans.

Tracy, may assume you know their findings but would rather it come from someone without a horse in the race?

Nice...
Mr. Schroeder, I really enjoyed the link that you've provided. Initially, your Moroso Air/Oil Separator was recommended to me by several of my co-workers. These guys are aircraft mechanics for Delta Air Lines here in Boston. As enthusiasts, they are constantly modifying their Vettes, Porsche's and Cobra GT500's. They often race them on weekends in New Hampshire. These are the same guys that can overhaul a 777, GE90 engine that can produce approx. 115,000 lbs. of thrust. These guys know their cars and airctraft..... they would never recommend a product that would not produce expected results.
On the end note, I would also like to tell you that your Air/Oil Separator is Outstanding! I'm really glad that I've chosen Moroso. Thank you... |

That deal was made between those parties that have something to gain from such a venture. As I've said so many times before, I have no horse in the race. It doesn't matter to me how well it works or doesn't work. I have no intention of putting any other can in my vehicle, because I'm very satisfied with the Moroso product and the work SPI has done to setup and install it and the feedback they gave me about it. So, it's a mute point for me to get into any further. Whoever's vehicle they test it in should be the individual giving feedback. |

At this time it's clear that this has become more of a needless fight then anyone truely wanting to learn or improve the product they choose so I'm bowing out. And SPI got the can because they and calbert asked for it to try and see...they conacted me at calberts request and we provided them the cans to test and compare.....it is up to them to post and report, not me....that would be meaningless, and I have to say as far as aerospace workers and catchcans on jets could not be further apart than anything I could imagine as it relates to a internal combustions PCV system. This startedas the OP asking for information on the can....and we had done extensive testing and responded with all the info anyone could want and went even further to explain how to easily it could be modified to be even more functional.....somehow all that got lost in meaningless arguing about everything but the facts and how anyone can test ANY can including mine.

How does this Moroso can do with a centrifugal/turbo? When under boost the intake is under positive pressure and will not pull the crankcase pressure thru the can, at least it seems.
Shouldn't there also be a line going to the inlet of the centri/turbo intake so the crankcase is being relieved of pressure/vapors etc. when the car is under boost. Or should a 2nd can be installed that Tees into the line that connects to the valley cover port/drivers side valve cover and the other going to the inlet tube just prior to the centri/turbo I know RX makes a dual valve can for this exact situation.

Would you install a catch can on a V6 as well? wondering if I should add one to my list of goodies with a cold air intake...
