Cool A few pictures of my new catch can setup

I finally came up with a good location for my catch can. Before this, I had it mounted horizontally to the firewall behind the plenum. This way is a little cooler, I think

Those of you with an HR motor, know that space is very limited for a catch can. Even worse, add twin turbo piping and it's almost impossible. I finally had some free time today, so I redid my whole catch can setup.

Step 1: Relocate the ugly, horrible, disgusting OEM coolant overflow reservoir.


Step 2: Install new overflow reservoir.



Step 3: Install new -10 AN lines.



Finished product.

Looks great Chris.

So, you have to remove the front bumber every time you check/refill the overflow reservoir?

I'm thinking about this way:

Well yes, but in the whole time I've owned the car, I've never really had to mess with the overflow level. Plus I really don't want to drill a huge hole in my rad support.
