Is a catch can really necessary for the EVO?

Marvelous, thanks.

There's a How to Buy link at the top of their main page:

We don't use anything like carts or automated payments. We prefer simple e-mails so we can communicate and know what the customer needs.

Sometimes we have custom requests, and that is something that cannot be handled automatically.

So, just send us an e-mail expressing your interest to place an order. We will get back to you as soon as possible. If you know what you want already, just list the items and we can reply with a total amount if your items are in stock. Paypal works best and quickest, but we also accept Postal Money Orders. Just let us know what is best for you.

Thanks!

Mr. Saikou ^^V

The email is through their Contact link.

even though you don't see alot of oil coming out of the can on the breather side, i sure did see alot of oil in my intake pipe, lower IC pipe, and intercooler before putting a can on that line.

I just got 1/4 cup of oil out of my PCV/intake mani can. My other (crankcase vent) had nothing in it

Are these catch cans made for the Evo? Since no one really gets anything in the Crank case vent, I'm guessing one can is good enough?

I would not call them Evo specific but with the size of them they are very convienent.

Overtime the Crankcase Vent spits into the intake which over time dirties the intake pipe and MAF. which creates turbulance in the intake flow, getting on the turbine fins, FMIC passage etc. Its just that it collects very slowly on that side in relation to the PCV side. I would Recommend that you get both.
