Jamie
how often do you empty the can?

[Fooda]

People that have them fitted say that its when the cold weather sets in, the catch can earns its money
How cold does it get where you are?

well, when we removed the PCV hose from the top of the engine, there was a lot of oil in it, I don't know if that's normal or not but I'm guessing it isn't, right ?

And about the temperature here Chris, well the lowest I've seen it so far is 28°C hahahaha , but it sould get colder, or at least I hope so.

Fooda- you considering a recirc valve?

I never know about them, just had a quick search on Google and they look pretty good! Any idea where can I find one that fits our little monster ?

[Fooda]

Had a dyno run recently just to check how much power it's putting out.

131HP and 160ft-lb at the wheels !

And they told me the AFR is very lean up to 4k rpm, that's normal I guess, right ?

131 BHP out of a THP 150? What the read out at the flywheel did you get that
That's a fair power train loss- but cant remember what mine was
My 150 was running too rich when I had it looked at
All different I suppose

As far as I know, manual FWD have 15% power train loss .. Which, if you calculate it, means my car has 150HP and 184ft-lb at the flywheel!

What you mean? FWD usually means 4 wheel drive and obvs the DS3 is not 4 wheel drive?

Cheers Beef- u learn something every day. Shouldav thought a bit more- FRONT wheel drive

[Fooda]

UPDATE: After a while of running with the catch can the misfires seem to have disappeared, which is nice.
but there is no oil in the can ! ... in any case, I'm happy that is no longer misfires

for a while I was thinking of selling the car that's why I haven't updated here, but I didn't get a good price for it so It's staying

other parts will be ordered shortly ...
