Oil Catch Can ?
It's one of those things that tend to be forgotten in favour of power enhancing mods. Certainly with modified cars running higher boost and mapped for power, you don't want crankcase fumes re-entering the combustion chambers, increasing the potential of det., so in these cases it makes sense as part of a high power upgrade.
Mine was fitted by ZEN Performance as part of a package which has the potential for 400bhp It includes a return to sump for the trapped oil. Many systems require emptying of the oil every now and then. The vent can be fed back to the intake (no oil ) or open to atmosphere via a pipe eg under the car.
Can't really recommend one in particular as this is the first one I've used! There are a number on the market eg Forge, GRD, Perrin etc.

fitted mine to resolve oil in the ic issues...worth doing when you see what its collecting. I got mine from Harvey years ago, his was a good price and almost identical to the Cusco version.
Make sure you use the correct diameter hoses; 19mm on a classic iirc.
