Oil catch can pics
Hi folks
I'm looking at getting an oil catch can for my v2 WRX. Not mainly by choice but easier than replacing the oil feed pipe to the air intake pipe
So I was wondering if anyone with a catch can fitted on their v2 (any model) please pop up a pic of where they have it fitted please?
Also how easy/hard are they to fit?
Thank you

On my old car I ran a twin can setup

You should have a can with three ports for the breathers and then another port for a filter.
My can has the filter on the top, one port on the side for passenger side rocker breather and then two ports on the back for the other rocker breather and the crank case breather.

You need a filter to vent it. Some run a silicone hose from one of the outlets down the firewall and then fit a filter to that.

Original port points ???? Do you mean where the original breathers fed into fella ?
I've retained my original intake so the ports on that have been blanked yes chap. The crankcase breather originally feeds into the intake manifold via the pcv valve when off boost and then into the intake pipe when on boost. I've blanked the pcv valve on the back of the manifold and redirected the breather straight into the can.

Buy decent stuff is my advice. Buy cheap buy twice as they say.

Silicone is fine. I chose to use a decent quality hose to help prevent any kinks etc.

I went for a non return as well. No hardship in emptying it once a year maybe. As it does about 3000 miles a year anyway
Hose lengths. I was looking at 5 meters of each, 12mm and 15/16mm. Am I looking at way too much and if so how much you reckon? tank will either go where the gap is next to the air box or opposite side near nattery attached to the fan belt cover.

Mine doesn't have ac so is located on the near side inner wing under the strut brace. I chose the new age one from obp as it had the bracket attached. New age pipe work is the different diameter though. I have the spigot sizes somewhere I'll post them up later. Obp can make the can any dimensions you want:
