I'm having a bit of trouble finding the best bang for the buck catch can and vacuum block. If anyone has suggestions I'm all ears!
I’m not running a vac block but I got the UPR dual catch can with breather, have no complaints.

Some people (my wife) says she can smell the oil smell, but I just chalk it up to “race car shlt” lol.

If you haven't removed your sound tube, doing so will stop the oily smell.

My car is supercharged with a catch can/breather. That’s where it’s coming from.

Hardwired my battery tender leads. The plastic on the ring terminal interfered with using the power cable going into the fuse box so I it ran through the red rubber cover on the positive terminal. After that it was bath time.

Well, I did this about a week ago. I added the Roush fender cutout, they actually allow airflow throught the engine compartment. I found out that removing the fender liners is the way to go. It's a pain but well worth it.

I have the UPR single catch can without a breather. Do you really need the breather? Remove and plug the breather hole. Use an oil separator baffle in the first can or both. I don't think you are going to create that much pressure. If you really want the breather rout a rubber line to the bottom of the car and put the breather under the engine so it is out of the engine bay. Then the smell won't be drawn through the cabin filter. If there is any oil residue it drips on the ground not on the engine. I do this on my Harley, instead of running the breather it into the air cleaner I run a line to the bottom of the frame and attach a small filter.

Installed a FP strut tower brace and cowl k-brace. Could have gone aftermarket for something lighter, but wanted to keep stuff like this as close to OE as possible.

Then I went and swapped out the OE fog lights for something actually useful from Morimoto. Gotta get them aimed properly, but they are immediately superior to the OE LED fog lights.

Fitted new steering wheel:

Was a bit of a ball-ache to fit due to all the clips and screws that had to be released to disassemble all the buttons and switches off the old wheel.
Took me about an hour all in.

Still heated by the way.

Some guy in China. He was really good actually and confirmed my spec via Whatsapp and sent me pictures before shipping so I could confirm it was to my liking.

Got it here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/100....order_list.order_list_main.11.5e5f1802xGy0o7

I tried to get it done locally but no one was willing to make what I wanted. I wanted the shape I have in the picture but still with heating. All the re-trimmers in my country said they could only do round if I wanted heating.
