hey guys,

ive been thinking for a while about getting a catch can, mainly im just wanting to know whether it is really worth it at all? Is there anyone else that has done this to there LLT and if so what type of catch can did u get and was it worth doing?

Cheers Matt

WildfireSv6 has a catch can on his LLT, I've got one sitting around that I'm about to fit. We both have el cheapo Drift brand catch cans from Autobarn.

I say it's well worth it, especially if you're revving the motor out. When I had my inlet manifold off to fit the Mace Manifold Insulators I checked out my valves, so dirty, there was so much crap on them it wasn't funny.
Being direct injection there is no fuel coming into contact with the back of the intake valves to help clean them.

That's my opinion anyway.

If you fit the drift catch can from autobarn stuff it with some fairly rough steel wool (not the fine stuff as it can break down). This'll help separate the oil from the air..

Yeah I've been told to do that, haven't got around to it just yet.

rum87, I think I paid $70-$80
