What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[MikeMr305]

A few days ago i asked myself (as well as the forums) why no one gets cans other than the JLT one, and its as if i forgot the mess of a customer service department that is ADD W1 when i originally got the can for my previous car.
The absolute joke of 'instructions' are black and white and non descriptive,
They didnt send the 90° bend hardware fitting (arguably the most important one)

Edit: After an email exchange, they're 'sending out' a 90° bend so ill update if it happens, but tbh im lazy as hell so if my improvise works, i may or may not install it

so i had to carefully snake that through to the PCV section,
its not fun to install and probably wont be fun to empty, but it shouldn't be that big a deal. At least it looks kinda cool.
Forgot to take photos of it completed but ill get around to that.

So yea keep buying 2nd hand JLT cans because clearly they're the best

I have the UPR can. No complaints.

The UPR, JLT, and FP seperators seem to be designed in similar ways functionally, and they're the most popular 3 it seems lol.

Designs like ADD W1 might be pretty, but are pretty impractical. I like that it functions as a dual can in 1, so at least i dont need to spend double on 2 cans.

I have the UPR cans and have no clue how empty them. I can't even check my oil as the dipstick can't be reached.

Where are the mounted? My UPR can mounts on the radiator.

Yes, one on the left attached to the radiator and one on the right. What do I do just reach down and turn counter clockwise? I don't think my hand can reach the one attached to the radiator.

I mean worst case cant you just remove it in a minute or 2 with the quick release ? Then unscrew it? Depending on how long you've been running it, you should really figure out how to empty it soon lol

Same with the Mishimoto that I have. Radiator cover needs to come off and the whole catch can undone.

I had new tires and wheels mounted on my car today which I got from @shogun32, brand spanking new. My old driver side wheel was bent which I had to get fixed ($120 each wheel) along with two other wheels that were bad. So I thought about it and said F it, might as well get brand new tires and wheels. I love them tires have really good traction in the rain which I love too. Had a blast driving it.

Oh i thought you had the floating can.

What he said, just gotta remove those clips. You might have to remove the can itself also if its over tightened

Installed my Ford Performance Oil separator and put my engine cover back on after painting it.

That's what I do with my UPR catch-can mounted at top RH corner of the radiator. Don't have to take the top radiator cover off, just pop the two quick release hose fittings, and remove the can from the mounting bracket. Then remove the drain plug on the bottom. It really doesn't take more than a couple of minutes to remove and reinstall it - as long as you know the trick to releasing the hose fitting from the can nipples. I mounted it originally without removing the top plastic radiator cover either.

The missing piece of the puzzle got fitted (Thanks @HoosierDaddy ! ) :

It screws on but the back also had a bunch of glue like substance and since its so thin and easy to bend I was surprised the paint shop that removed it and knew it wasn't going back on didn't mess it up pulling it off. And even more surprised I still had it years later or without something denting or scratching it up. Clearly was fate.

I was hesitant to order this steering wheel off eBay, but did it anyway. Not too bad in my opinion! Fitment was great. Plus it added about 30 HP to the wheels!

I'm planning to buy this too. But damn it looks thick in your pic compare to the one in ebay.

 

[FreePenguin]

How much is that one above? I dig it. I would rather have blue or black stripe for my grabber. But how much is it? We need a definitive steering wheel thread, pics, place fitment etc review

So we can compare them. Because I see a ton of them and have no idea where they are from some people talk about fitment etc

Yep, unscrew quick release knob, lift can off the mounting stud, then you unscrew the bottom portion from the top by hand. The hoses are lengthy enough you don't need to disconnect them. Super quick and easy.
