Where are you getting your braided hoses from? Are you going to do AN fittings or just use worm gear fittings?

Most autoparts stores will have generic check valves in all different sizes. You will need a valve thats 5/16th diameter on each side. I bought a fram one for $8. Its probably like $3 in the US, lol.


For the OP, I don't think you will notice the difference of the CC. Its more of a peace of mind mod. You'll keep your intake manifold/intercooler/pipes cleaner. If you track though you will notice a difference. On my tune I don't knock on the street but without a CC I will get minor knock while running hot laps. It depends on how conservative your tune is.

Yea i will get the same braided hoses that AMS used on my fpr. Im just gonna buy a few feet from them cause i dont think my cc's will be here before i see them for my tune. Im sure 6AN size hose will be good as for fittings i guess im not sure what your talking about. Im just gonna slide the hose on and put a clamp on and be done with it.

The cans i ordered (http://www.saikoumichi.com/SPLIT_DC3_page.htm) are 3/8 in. diameter so i will get 3/8 in. diameter check valves which i might just puck up Boomba Racing ones (http://boombaracing.com/cv.html) there about 40 bucks but at least I know i will have quality products under my hood.
