Elite Engineering Catch Can install

[ssmike]

I can't imagine a problem with any engine, tuned or not! This thing just catches fumes and condensates them to collect. If anything I would think it's a must mod if you have a supercharger! I'm no expert though so maybe Elite can confirm!

I don't see any way this will do anything but help out. Just catches the oil blow by from getting into the supercharger. I have one as well not installed yet for my car which has a maggie and a cam also. If you can post some pics when you get yours installed of the way you ran your hoses please. As far as the tune goes you have no worries.

Allright, that's what I thought, just wanted some opinions first. Plan to install tonight, and If I can figure out how to put pictures on I wil do so.

One more question I need help with please, I installed my can last night. with the maggie. did you guys run the intake (top of can) hose all the way back to the fire wall where the end is? the out I have snakes back through and plugs back to the right side of supercharger (if you are looking at it) is this right?

Storage. You just cut the supplied hose in two and run them to the same outlet/inlet on the motor that the OEM Plastic hose was at.

Awesome to hear! Can't wait to see your pics as I am ready to put my can on with maggie already installed just waiting on some good pics to see how the hoses are routed.

I dropped my car off at IPS Motorsports on Friday. They said they hope to have it finished by the end of the day today (Monday) and then dyno the car tomorrow. I should be able to get some video on the dyno and bring it home tomorrow if all goes as planned.
