Forced induction and catch cans.

Are you sure that wasn't the firewall plug for removing the sound (air) tube?

Yep found that plug too. One was about 1 1/4" and sorta flat (firewall one) and the other looked like it was made to slide over 1/2" tube (figuring this is the one for that port)? Thanks again.

Anyone with a paxton setup a oil separator yet, other than the $340 UPR option? I already bought the bobs and really want to install this one but not sure how to.

So can we talk about the differences between catch fans and air oil separators. I googled just enough to see on other boosted enthusiast sites it mentions an AOS is where the "can" catches the oil and returns it back to the engine. Wondering if this requires the can to be up high so gravity can pull the oil back into the valve cover. Heck I don't even know if it exists for our GTs. The pics I saw of other vehicles looked kind of chaotic with all the hoses and hose clamps. But the thought of not monitoring a can for dumping sounds kind of worth it? I really should have searched, but figured this might be a good place to see what guys are doing.

I want to know this too. I will be installing a Paxton kit soon and want to still use my UPR catch can I have now with my N/A setup.

The amount of oil a catch can captures is minimal 2-3 ounces at most through oil changes. And it is nasty shit....dont need or want it going back into the motor.

You definitely don't want what ends up in the catch can back in the oil. Has water and fuel and other nastiness. Keep your oil system closed.

Beating a dead horse....if you have the N/A setup and go supercharged, you just need more line? I looked at the Procharger diagram, and it looks like the driver and pass side come together with a t fitting, and then to the catch can. Then catch can to intake tube. Would we just buy more line, cut the dirty line to accept the t, and maybe extend it if needed?

Here's a moroso installed with a procharger. We removed the the CMCV's and put the MMR lockouts in. The passenger hose was ran around the rear and t'd to the drivers side then to the OCC and the inlet

I put these together for my TT set up.
