2.0T Catch Can Install

[rocket23]

Here's a pictorial of my catch can install. The 1st pic is the hose you want to ''lead'' in to the catch can I used the oem hose for proper mounting, however the dull black hose is old washing machine hose to make the final connection.....sure I could of cut the oem hose but I decided to keep it whole just in case I decided to return to oem spec's......but I doubt it.Here they are in order of install. enjoy.

Does it have any performance implications? Not to familiar with mods...

near as I can figure it catches all the oil that would be sucked thru the intake back into the combustion chamber.....with the added tune there is more boost and in theory more oil through the venting system.....the catch can catches the oil andonly allows crank case gasses back into the intake with out the oil

I see. Thanks for the thorough explanation. Trying to see what kinds of performance mods I can do on my 2.0L!

Running Intake and Map 2 JB4, Would I "need" an OCC?

Well ,Yeah, running more ''boost''( for power) inherently will produce more crankcase pressure, the oil vapor has to go somewhere.....why not a catch can instead of your throttle body and intake?!

Your car, your choice. The manufacturer didn't think it's necessary. But it appears no one really has a handle on long term gas direct injection engine issues. By comparison, diesels which are almost always forced induction and direct injection (and much higher compression ratios) also almost always have catch cans.

the big rigs are going one step further with the ''def'' fluid and added remixing of combustion gases.......That said the older rigs dumped it via a hose right next to the oil pan......I have no idea about smaller diesels.

Yeah, I'm talking passenger car and truck diesel. The rest of the world uses those a ton, so there's a big aftermarket.
Gas engines have had EGR - Exhaust Gas Recirculation - since the early 70's. DEF is post-recirc to further cut down what makes it out of the exhaust pipe. On the gas side, the catalytic converters are good enough.

Does it matter if your OCC is above your intake?or does it need to be below the turbo?

Here's mine. Did anyone else notice when starting up your car the intake is quiet?

Hey I’m trying to install this one for my 2.0 any tips I never installed one before

Hi all. Do yourself a favour and put some heat insulation sleeve over any hoses the track over or around the exhaust.

If the exhaust heat should melt of crack a hose near the exhaust, the result will most likely be an engine bay fire.

I'd recommend something like this silver stuff at the top of this pic.

Mine actually run over the top front of the engine. But I will be using steel braided lines vim the near future. I still use some of the oem that needs to go.

out goes to the iintake tube and in comes from the engine?

 

[rocket23]

The flow is from the engine too the cai. With the catch can in the middle. There is a vacuum effect that is quite effective.
