Reply With QuoteI would send the catchcan back for a refund, THEN go by Homedepot and get a small Campbell-Hausfield water seperator(air line filter) for 18$ and install it between the PCV and intake mani nipple.
I just ordered a megan racing oil catch can due to oil in my intake! Where should i mount this? Or a DIY would be even more helpful?

Heres the original thread on K20a.org that gives you all the info you need, and more.
DIY Catch Can
I've been rocking this for over a year now and stand behind it fully. Works great and its cheap!
AkA EX FULL-RACE EP3
Well that might work but I paid 77 for this and getting a refund would be out the the question seeing as I ordered online.
I'm pretty sure I can install it I just need to know a good mounting position. Does
Anyone have a pic of they're catch can installed?
There is VERY LITTLE room for a full size catch can in the EP3, and why most everyone uses the DIY catch can. Looping alot of vacuum tubing over to the drivers side will allow you to mount it, but creates it's own issues.

Issues? Like what?
This 20 dollar catch can is easy to make? And works good? Myt first impression
Of it was ghetto
LOL, ghetto, yup I figure that definition works as well as any, LOL
It is easy to set up, just get the brass elbow/barb fittings and some vacuum line. The stock line from the PCV to the mani is a direct 4-5" piece with a 90 degree bend. That is removed and the new lines slipped on the PCV and mani nipples, and routed over by the headlight where the little filter fits very nicely up under the rad/headlight support, you can barely see it in this picture, but the tie straps(black) I used on either side of the filter to mount it, are visible on the rad support.

That actually doesn't look too bad. Do you have to put a new filter in it every so often?
How quick does it fill up.
Nice, easy, and cheap, just the way I like it! I'm gonna do this soon.
quick question, i have the skunk2 intake manifold and there is not a port for the pcv like on the oem intake manifold, my pcv is just vented. Where would i install this can then lol?
