Another oil catch can thread..

[ihavefat]

It seems like this question has been asked numerous time but I personally just can't find much info on it on this forum.

JLT and UPR seem to be the popular choices but supposedly JLT doesn't collect as much oil as UPR and some other brands. But UPR has inferior lines and may need a little bit of modification.

What is everyone running??

The car will be Autox/HDPE and the car will get oil changed way more frequently than 3-5k mile intervals if that changes anything.

Thanks guys!

I ran the UPR 5028-98-SC in the normal configuration for a month. I then picked up the remote mount. Never had an issue with needing to modify it to fit in either configuration. It does not have inferior lines. They do offer an upgrade but I have the basic lines and no issues after 7 months. If there was an issue then UPR would straighten it out.

What do you mean UPR has inferior lines? They are super solid.

Just something I read when I was browsing on here. That is good to hear though.

Was this proven that UPR collects more oil than JLT? Just wondering...

I can tell you with 100% certainly having used both the UPR setup is far superior to JLT. Phenomenal setup and quality and it worked night and day better for me.

All of our 2015 catch can systems use a braided re-enforced hose with quick connect fittings and a built in check valve. We have a few different models which any of them will work great for your set up. From N/A to high boost. We have what you need.


Thanks.

I use Bob's ultimate, so far it has been great. It has a valve on the bottom for easy draining.

Both. I had their plug & play on he car and truck before I supercharged both and now have the single valve remote mount and drivers side "clean side" on both and couldn't be happier. I asked for a ball valve when I ordered it and they sent one

+10 that they have excellent quality lines. Cloth braided Goodyear fuel grade lines with oem connectors. I wish oem lines were this good.

Anyone check their lines going from the catch can to intake manifold? Ive noticed a little bit of oil in it. I have the 2nd gen more efficient UPR catch can.

How new is your four chamber can? About a year ago when they first came out with this new generation can that sat on the radiator hose, I bought one. I got quite a bit of liquid oil in the fitting coming out of the can.

When they came out with the round stainless steel mesh ring that went on the outside of the diffuser tube and I upgraded to the firewall mount, I now only get a slight oil film coming out of the outlet fitting.

They supposedly are coming out with solid diffuser discs in place of the perforated ones that are supposed to work even better. I'm not sure when those will be available though.
