Catch can preferences

[Outlaw]

I really like the J&L. Well built, clean look and simple to access. I also think it looks really good in the engine bay. It also come with factory Ford hoses.

How's you stop it from sagging down? Mine sags down and the hose is being worn thru by the oil cap to the point I'll have to replace the tube after only 5-10k miles. Maybe more, haven't checked it recently. I have a similar issue with my coolant tank, in just waiting for the coolant tank to explode to need a new one lol

I could not imagine spending hundreds of dollars on such a simple piece of technology that debatably is useless. Just buy the cheapest one if you really want it

I haven't. Lol. It's not very old so it's still holding up like new. That was the only thing I wondered about because there's no bracing. It's so light though so I didn't think it would happen. Lol

That was part of my concern with the jlt can. Im not a fan of things shifting around anywhere. This is where the Mishimoto can and UPR can were my two choices .

I get what you are saying, but it's literally trapping oil from going back into the motor. So I wouldn't say its useless. I understand how direct injection works and port injection works, and my car has both, but for 200$ for some filtering before going back into the motor, why not?

I wish that I would have added a dirty side one from the go. I didn't realize how dirty and how much they helped until doing headers and saw how dirty it was in there. Mine has separated a bunch(a surprising amount) a couple of times throughout the winter. Saying they are useless is laughable.

As far as the OP question. I went with the UPR dual vented. It's been great and does both sides using factory style quick connections and a decent mount.

+1 for the Ford Performance Catch Can. It looks OEM and fits well.

Who cares if oil goes back in the engine? Why does it matter?

I'd prefer to stop any oil and moisture from recirculating back through the TB, intake and then being burned up in the combustion process.

If an extra filter is available why not?

Useless?

You've got no idea what you're talking about.

So just a question for anyone that has used the UPR catch can setup. Just installed it and I am not happy with the routing of the lines. im not sure if there is a better way to route the top fitting to the valve cover, but i feel like that hose was about 3 inches to long. (Wish I heard that all my life) I had to pretty much shove it under the manifold line just to keep it down. Any suggestions or thoughts on the routing? I can grab a picture tomorrow when its not this late.
