This is according to the cacth can for sale thread a while a go that you show us to get it for $120!!!

Anyway really appriciate that, nice one too but now i have a little problem, i had mine fitted at BMT for 2 months now and i don't think it working. I inspec it this afternoon and the thing still as new as ever.

I then remember Mike ( the guy who sold it to me ) said something about there are a few hose need to be block not just the one that feed oil to the turbo alone.

Anychance if you could post some pics of your engine so i can see which needed to be block?

Thanks heaps.:P

Hey West, sorry about the late reply just did a 14 hour day not to mention the rest of the week...anyway the hose you need to block is between the rocker cover and intake plenum it is plumbed into the side of the rockercover and is about the same diameter as five cent coin. It is about level with the fuel pressure regulator and is 'S' shaped. You will find a valve were the hose connects to the rocker cover which needs to be blocked. A screw the same size as used for your speaker is a perfect fit. The valve closes when the engine is on boost so your catch can only is working when you have + pressure. Also idle will be upset untill the valve is blocked as the engine can suck air through this hose and through the catch can filter without the airflow meter seeing it.....which upsets your mixtures.

Yes. That's the one. The one on top of the rocker cover that feed oil into the turbo.

Anyway that S shape hose is the only one that you need to block? The hose that i was talking about is the one on top of the rocker that goes down to right side of the engine ( when you stood in front of the car ).

Thanks.

      Yes, the problem is the supply chain hasn't standardized on metric which makes it more expensive to source metric hardware. They're all mail order at this point. Fastenal is cheap but you can't exactly rock up to a fulfillment warehouse as a random D2C. Paying 13 USD in shipping for 3 nuts doesn't really make sense. McMaster-Carr and similar companies are all in a similar sort of boat. If you like gambling on mystery hardware Amazon is cheap too but you're going to be buying 25 of whatever screw you need. So Lowes/Home Depot ends up being the way to go if you really only need small quantities of hardware for odd jobs like trying to rebuild a power steering pump that calls for an m6x1.0 screw to pop out the flow control valve.

      What size bolts did you use to reattach the cam cover baffles? Thinking it will need to be M3-M4

      Yeah one of the first things I out in when I started having catch can filling up issues. Still prefer to empty 1-2 times a track day rather than every session

      Compressor flow comparison table

      By Lithium · Posted

      You'll find this link is probably more useful  Performance Turbochargers - Garrett - G GT GTX GTW Series Turbo TBG G35 1150 map may not even get added to my list depending on how it looks, the G35 1050 already is a mixed bag for making the numbers you would expect from the compressor map due to mismatch - I don't know how another 10lb/min of compressor flow is going to make that any better.   I've left out others for similar reasons as it's already getting quite big.   In terms of Precision, provide me with legit compressor maps for them and I'll do my thing   I'll add some more of the newer Xona Rotor options are they're pretty boss, I'd take a 68mm Xona over a G35 "1150" any day of the week - or Precision for that matter.

      Ahh got it. Well maybe install a drain for the catch can somewhere down low and accessible like a wheel well too....
