Hi Everyone. Do catch cans need to be baffled? Will a sealed baffled catch can filter better then one with steel wool? Any one that has tried both systems?
For a VZ that burns very little oil.

You kinda need a combination of chambers or baffles and steel wool which seems to work best. Anything to help drop oil vapour out of the air.

I put a partition down the centre of my catch can. The bottom 50mm had a series holes drilled in it. Both sides had stainless steel scourer pads instead of steel wool plus the inlet and outlet ports had some copper pipe added to the inside og the can
