Hey Chris, haven't fitted the rear can yet, ordered the wrong tubing. Should have it in in the next week or 2. Front one has been on 2 weeks, but havent checked for any build up on there yet, only done 200kms.

Originally posted by Superfly Guy View Post@Chris, that place I got my piping from in Lakeside is definitely worth a look, the lads in there knew exactly what I was after and how it would be used. Il be going back if/when I fit a rear OCC and if/when I tidy up the routing for the front.
Have I already asked which direction the flow is for rear PCV. Is it away from top of engine?sigpicJog on Noddy

Tch- did you have any luck with getting decent hosing
If the tube closes up under vacuum, would it knacker the Turbo, or would it just "Not work"
Gonna have a go and fit a rear Catch can soonsigpicJog on Noddy

Thinking about fitting the rear OCC near the window fluid washer bottle on the top left of my photo :

Originally posted by nutbolt View Postdid you ever manage to fit the rear can on? Can't see much space to fit the front can. The rear could be fitted near washer fluid bottle.
Front can is OK. Problem with the rear is dependant on the pipe coming out the rocker cover/ angles etc.
PM me your email and I can send a photo if you like
Ed- thing is about catch cans, they don't resolve the issues. Jamie (On here) has them fitted and still had to walnut blast his own motor. Mine went in on 18,800 miles for inlet valves treatment and had a can (On front) for previous 7k miles....Last edited by Chris_Blue; 24-11-2014, 19:38.sigpicJog on Noddy

Its a good can. he supplies the pipe too, but not the bracket, although he wants me to give details of the bracket so he can set up a kit
