I hope it works with strut tower brace!

This is what I ordered.

Let us know once you get it. Been looking at that remote mount.

That fabbed up can behind the strut tower looks awesome

Damn, spoke too soon. Looks like my UPR might be leaking too. Just checked today and the passanger side nipple had some oil on it.

My car seems to collect a lot of oil in my can. I HAD a JLT and it was still letting oil by which was causing it to get in the intake. It caused the octane to drop and it would cause knock. My car would pull as much as 8 degrees of timing due to this. I picked up the Bob's catch can which is really nice and my problem is solved.

I can't imagine between that time you maybe filled up with another tank of fuel? That's a pretty bold statement, there's a lot of different things can cause knock from strictly blaming a catch can. The car should even knock that bad with no can on it with good fuel in it.

I have a UPR can that also leaks from the bottom. Been meaning to look into this but I've been busy. What mount are you guys talking about? I don't like how it just hangs either since it causes wear marks on the hose.

Removing the lower part of the can was easy. The textured grip really helps out once you get everything cleaned out.

Separate the can, remove the o-ring , clean out the threads and wrap them with a couple layers of teflon tape and leaks will be a thing of the past.

Is teflon tape the fix? Too busy with meetings during the weekdays for other phone calls but I'd like to know as well since I did my first oil change today with it installed and found the same leaks. The can definitely works though as I had about an inch or more of oil in it in ~3k miles. If the fix is teflon tape then I'll just add it as no matter what there isn't a can that's easier to install and obviously catches the blow-by.

My can is holding up well so far, the guys over at UPR were a big help. :cheers:

Got my relocation kit and took a few pics. Mine wasn't leaking as bad as OP and only seemed to be on the in side. So I just turned it around and see if it would leak out the other side. If it does i'll just put some teflon on it.

As for the kit, I'm kinda happy with it. It moves it out of the way and looks better. But its a tight fit back there and now its rubbing on wiring harness. Although it shouldn't mark it up like the hose since its fixed mounted. Its going to be a pain now to empty. I'll have to unscrew it and leave a rag under it so it won't drip. Before I just took the whole thing out.

Here are the pics. You can see that it sat crooked which really annoyed me. lol

carried the car to the track with a full tank of 93 plus 2 bottles of octane booster. It was 100% oil getting into my intake. The hose going to the intake had oil in it. Once I told my tuner what was going on and he looked at the logs then he said 1 of 2 things is happening. Either bad gas or oil getting into the intake. I killed the bad gas idea and that left 1 thing. I logged the car and it was pulling timing. I have since changed to a Bob's can and logged it 10 times and it is adding the timing it is suppose to be adding.
I am by far not the only person that has had problems with your catch can so don't act like it is new news to you!
