Do you have any header pictures of kit and under carriage? Do you have any oil cooler installed?

Still no oil cooler...yet. Car behaves fine, but I really should do some data logging to ensure my temps aren't too bad. I'll have to check to see if i have any good shots of my header setup.

So I have installed the new Cusco vertical oil catch can and I can already attest to this being worth it's weight in gold. My fuel mileage has seriously gone from my average indicated of 25.4 (+/-.1) to 27.0 (+/-.1) miles per gallon for my average daily drive which includes a bunch of stop and go city driving with a 7 mile stretch of highway mixed in, which is my daily commute. On top of this I have drastically reduced the soot build up on my exhaust tips. Before the catch can I could clean the tips and at the end of a day of driving they would be black instead of chrome. Now I have run the car 7 days since cleaning them and only have a couple soot spots that I think might be from further in the exhaust. I'll post up some pictures once I get off work so you can see how I set it up.
There are a couple little things I had to do to make this setup work in my car and I basically had to look at how others have theirs set up since the instructs provided with this car were in Japanese and had crappy diagrams...not to mention they routed the hoses to the wrong parts of the engine to have any real effect. I hooked min up to the engine case PCV valve and the intake manifold port that the breather was originally attached to. Also I reverse mounted the can so that the hose nipples are pointing toward the firewall instead of the engine...this was only because the hoses were rubbing on the edge of my CF engine cover and i didnt want to risk cutting the lines due to abrasion. I am super stoked about this can, at first I was not too excited about this kit, but I have definitely had a change of heart and can honestly say I love it. Little issues aside this product actually works is it collecting oil probably, cant tell yet since none is showing in the little sight gauge but the effects were immediate and definitely help with the turbo. I'll post a small review in the Engine parts section once I have some photos! |

2 more ?'s
@Supermassive what kind of alignment specs are you running with your set up on these wheels, i.e. toe/camber? thx...
Also regarding your new addition of the cusco oil catch, I noticed you opted for the vertical can and cusco also has a horizontal option as well, which is significantly cheaper...major difference in benefit (horizontal v. vertical) to justify the price diff in your opinion? I've followed your entire build thread and you seem very knowledgable so sorry to bombard with the ?'s but I trust your opinion. Thx
