Default My custom twin catch can system pic's.

Just a few pic's of my twin catch can system I've put together.

The left can does the PCV and has vacuum, the right can is just used under boost.

The full thread can be seen here. Loads more pic's ect.

http://forums.nissansportz.com//inde...opic=26103&hl=

Quick motor shot (the strut brace is going back on)


12mm brass "T" fitting in the valve cover balance line.




Inlet to the catch can near the timing cover is coming off the "T" fitting on the cam cover line.


This one way valve was added to stop me over pressuring the catch can, the little sight glass could not take boost pressure!


Car runs fine. No smoke and there not filling up mega fast.

Thanks guys. If you've checked out the link this was not my first set up. Its taken a while to get the system like this. Its not cost huge amounts too. The catch cans were £40 each and the lines + NRV's fitting's etc. came to £50. Not a bad set up for £110 ($180)!!

Nice setup. I also run twin catch cans (Hidden) its the way to go. No smoke and valve covers dont leak by coil pack seals anymore.

good looking setup, what did you do with the UK passenger side outlet at the rear of the rocker cover?

Did you use a one way valve in the line to the inlet?

That rear out let is still plumbed into the pax side turbo inlet as it comes from aps. I have not changed that at all.
